The 21st of February is our Martyrs' day.Every year we celebrate this day with great importance.From very beginning,the rulers of Pakistan were tiring to make "Urdu" our state language.But people of East Pakistan did not accept it.They started movement to make "Bengali" the state language.On 21st February 1952 a few students were martyred by police firing on a procession.We call them language martyrs.The 21st February is called Martyred Day because they were martered for the language.We celebrate this day nationally.
