Architect of a New Nation: The Story of Bangladesh’s First Prime Minister”

Sheikh Mujibur Rahman was the first President of Bangladesh and the central figure in the country’s independence movement. Born in 1920, he emerged as a charismatic leader advocating the rights of the Bengali people under Pakistani rule. Following the historic Liberation War of 1971, Bangladesh achieved independence, and Mujibur Rahman became its first President on 12 January 1972. Known as Bangabandhu (Friend of Bengal), he played a crucial role in nation-building, framing the constitution, and laying the foundations of a sovereign, democratic Bangladesh. His leadership remains a defining chapter in the nation’s history.
