The Historic Speech of 7th March
The historic speech of 7th March delivered by Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, the Father of the Nation, bears great importance in our national life. Following this decisive speech, people of all walks of life got prepared to take part in the Liberation War and finally achieved independence. Bangabandhu delivered this speech on 7 March 1971 in the then Race Course ground (present Suhrawardy Uddyan). The speech was addressed to a huge audience of Bengali people. The speech was greatly related to our national history. Bangabandhu in this speech put up all the oppression and cruelty of Pakistani rulers to the huge audience, which inflamed their sense of reason. He asked the common people to stop all the official activities. He requested the people to convert every house into a fort and confront the enemy with whatever they had. In short, he decisively permitted the people to take up weapons against the enemy. Before the liberation war, this was the last speech of Bangabandhu, and people being immensely influenced by it, attacked the Pakistani occupation forces heart and soul. Eventually, people won the victory over the cowards and achieved independence. Thus, the importance of the 7th March Speech is immeasurable. The speech is highly valued across the world. Recently UNESCO recognized this historic speech on 7th March of Bangabandhu as part of the world's documentary heritage. Thus, the speech has added to our national glory of independence and remains to be of great historical importance for every Bangladeshi.
