Prime Minister Tarique Rahman has called on relevant authorities to consider transforming the Amar Ekushey Book Fair into an international event starting next year. He made the proposal on Thursday afternoon while inaugurating the fair at the Bangla Academy in Dhaka. The Prime Minister highlighted the fair’s significance in honoring the martyrs of the language movement and its role in celebrating the spirit of the Bengali language.
He noted that the Ekushey observance has already gained global recognition as International Mother Language Day. Rahman said that turning the book fair into an international event would help citizens engage with world literature and learn about diverse languages and cultures. He emphasized the importance of knowledge, science, and technology in building a merit-based and prosperous society.
The Prime Minister also suggested that Bangladesh should begin efforts to achieve recognition of Bengali as one of the official languages of the United Nations.
