Electricity, Energy and Mineral Resources Minister Iqbal Hasan Mahmud Tuku said that celebrating Language Day with only cultural programs is not enough. Speaking as the chief guest at a discussion, cultural event, and award ceremony organized by the Sirajganj district administration on Saturday morning, he emphasized that to truly uphold Bangla as the mother tongue, people must reject foreign slogans and attitudes that do not align with the spirit of the language.
The minister stated that Bangla has a rare and proud history compared to many other languages and urged everyone to love their own language, culture, and country. He criticized the growing use of certain foreign expressions among the youth, saying such trends are disconnected from Bangla’s heritage and those who once tried to suppress it. The event was chaired by Deputy Commissioner Md. Aminul Islam and attended by local officials, political leaders, and freedom fighters.
Tuku added that true patriotism requires purification of thought and action, which he said is essential for protecting the Bangla language.
