Sheikh Mujibur Rahman was the founding father and first president of Bangladesh. He dedicated his life to establishing an independent, democratic and exploitation-free Bangladesh. As the leader of the Awami League, he was elected as the sole spokesman for East Pakistan in 1970 and received an absolute mandate for his six-point plan for autonomy. However, he was arrested before Bangladesh declared its independence in 1971. After Bangladesh gained independence, Mujib served as the first president but was assassinated in 1975.
