Victory Day !

16 December is our Victory Day - On this day, after the nine month long independence war with Pakistan, the occupying armed forces of Pakistan formally surrendered to the allied forces of Bangladesh and India.

Hi, Moni! I would like to know this, too! That first site was an interesting history lesson. I was in high school when this was going on but never really learned what it was all about. For some reason, I couldn't access the second site. I'll try again later.

Moni! What a STUNNING monument that is! What do you know about the design concept? (What it represents?) Can you go inside of it? If yes - what is in there?
