A video showing an Islamic speaker chanting 'Pakistan Zindabad' during a Quran recitation conference in Sandwip, Chattogram, has gone viral on social media, triggering widespread criticism and debate. The 20-second clip shows the speaker leading chants for both Pakistan and Bangladesh, followed by religious slogans. Organizers said the event featured participants from Iran, Egypt, the Philippines, and Pakistan, and that chants were made to welcome each country's representative. Another video from the same event supports this explanation, showing similar chants for Egypt. Despite this, local freedom fighters expressed anger, condemning the slogan as disrespectful to Bangladesh’s liberation history. The local administration has stated that it was unaware of the incident but will look into the matter. The event was organized by the Sawtul Quran Institute, whose director could not be reached for comment.
