Prime Minister Tarique Rahman inaugurated the yearlong 'Nazrul Year 2026–2027' program on Thursday morning through a virtual event organized by the Cabinet Division at the Bangladesh Secretariat. He declared that national poet Kazi Nazrul Islam is not only a figure of the past but also a source of inspiration for future generations. The government has designated May 25, 2026, to May 25, 2027, as Nazrul Year and is considering declaring Trishal in Mymensingh, associated with the poet’s memory, as 'Nazrul City'.
During the event, the Prime Minister highlighted Nazrul’s influence on Bangladesh’s social, political, and cultural life, describing him as a guiding light against oppression and inequality. He emphasized the poet’s inclusive vision that transcended religious and social divisions and urged that Nazrul’s moral and humanistic values be used to guide youth amid the challenges of technology and artificial intelligence.
Rahman called for successful organization of literary conferences, research, seminars, cultural festivals, and exhibitions under the national committee formed for the celebration. He also unveiled a commemorative stamp and logo marking the official start of Nazrul Year.
