The document summarizes key events in the Bengali language movement in Pakistan between January and February 1952. It discusses Prime Minister Nazimuddin's announcement that Urdu would be the sole official language, sparking protests. On February 4th, students at Dhaka University went on strike against the proposal to write Bengali in Arabic script and demand recognition of Bengali. Section 144 was imposed banning public gatherings, but students held meetings anyway. On February 21st, police opened fire on protests, killing five students and hundreds injured, making it a pivotal event where people sacrificed their lives for their mother tongue.
International Mother Language Day is observed annually on February 21st to promote linguistic and cultural diversity. It was established by UNESCO in 2000 to commemorate the Bengali Language Movement in Bangladesh. In 1952, Bangladeshi students protested against the Pakistani government's policy of making Urdu the sole official language, despite Bengali being the native language of most residents. When police opened fire on protesters, several students were killed. Their sacrifice led to the eventual recognition of Bengali as an official language of Pakistan and helped spark the Bangladesh Liberation War of 1971.
Mother tongue is important for cultural identity. In 1947, Pakistan consisted of two parts that spoke different languages - Urdu in West Pakistan and Bengali in East Pakistan. In 1952, the government of Pakistan tried to make Urdu the sole national language, sparking protests in East Pakistan. When police fired on demonstrations, several protesters were killed, sparking the Language Movement to protect the status of Bengali. Today, Bangladesh observes International Mother Language Day in remembrance of the martyrs who sacrificed their lives for the right to use their mother tongue of Bengali.

Azim akhtar decline of urdu &impact on education in upsatyendraurinfo
The document discusses the decline of Urdu language in education in Uttar Pradesh and its impact. It notes that historically both Urdu and Hindi were used as mediums of instruction in schools in the region. However, after independence the government promoted Hindi as the sole official language, neglecting Urdu. This went against the historical dual role of Urdu and Hindi in education. The document outlines how international organizations like UNESCO have emphasized the importance of using a child's mother tongue in early education. However, the Uttar Pradesh government has failed to implement mother tongue education policies and promote the use of Urdu in schools.
Azim akhtar decline of urdu &impact on education in upsatyendraurinfo
The document discusses the decline of Urdu language and its impact on education in Uttar Pradesh, India. It traces the history of language policy in UP from the colonial period when both Urdu and Hindi were used for education, to the post-independence period when Hindi in Devanagari script was declared the sole official language, ignoring the rights and sentiments of Urdu speakers. As a result, literacy rates in UP remained very low compared to national averages due to the lack of mother tongue education. The United Nations and various committees have emphasized the importance of mother tongue education at the primary level, but the UP government has failed to implement a multilingual policy respecting the rights of linguistic minorities.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...indexPub
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.
