At a discussion marking the 194th death anniversary of Shaheed Mir Nisar Ali Titumir, speakers criticized the state’s continued neglect in properly honoring the 19th-century revolutionary leader. The event, organized by the Government Titumir College Journalists’ Association, featured civil society representative Abul Kashem Sheikh of the United Nations, academics, journalists, and political figures. Sheikh emphasized that Titumir’s rebellion against British colonial and landlord oppression remains a symbol of resistance and justice, lamenting the absence of a national budget or official recognition for his legacy. Other speakers, including Dr. S. M. Khaliduzzaman and writer Abid Azam, linked Titumir’s struggle to later movements for independence and social justice in Bengal, urging the youth to emulate his ideals. They described the state’s failure to commemorate him as a reflection of institutional weakness and called for broader recognition of his contributions to Bangladesh’s liberation and identity.
