Jamaat’s Cultural War: Targeting Rabindranath Tagore and Bangladesh’s National Identity
—
As Jamaat e Islami ameer embarked on a visit to Turkey, its foot soldiers in Bangladesh further stepped up ongoing cultural genocide to erase Bangladesh’s cultural icons who are recognised by the world as symbol of tolerance and peace.
In addition, the polymath, Rabindranath’a lyrics was adopted as the national anthem in 1971 during the Bangladesh Liberation War (officially declared on January 13, 1972).
supporters of Jamaat, doubled down on erasing the legacy of patriotism using the facade of anti Indian sentiment.
As part of the plan, self styled handful of so called revolutionaries painted black ink on Rabindranath’s painting only to be faced with resistance.
For five decades his written anthem inspired millions of Bangladeshis instilling a sense of patriotism but abhorred by war criminals from Jamaat e Islami that committed genocide in 1971 with pak army.
But after the regime change in 2024, son of notorious war criminal Abdullahil Azmi publicly called for changing the national anthem, drawing flak from millions of liberals.
Weeks earlier, these pro Islamists also sought to glorify Muhammad Ali Jinnah by installing his photo but later removed in face of public outburst.

The last city of Taxila.....!
Sirsukh was founded by the Kushans in c. 100 AD.
It was a planned city with walls, drainage, streets & suburbs.
It was later captured by the Imperial Guptas & destroyed by Huns in c. 500 AD.
Taxila became a ruined city after 500 AD.
Arunachal's Deputy CM Chowna Mein comes from Tai Khamti community
Despite being minority, Buddhists exert heavy political influence in the state (CM, Dy CM, Union Minister, etc)
muslims co-opting rajput identity and flaunting caste in 2026 is genuinely hilarious. If a Hindu did the exact same thing, they’d be dragged as casteist, supremacist & regressive. But if it's a muslim, they r celebrated and hailed as some revolutionary reclaiming their heritage
Did you know? L S Rao, the excavator of Bhirrana, has passed away without handing over his excavation report.
And there is no deadline. No SOP. No one to follow up.
One of the oldest Harappan sites we know of, and its full story may now stay buried twice. Once in the mound, once in a file.
Ironic, isn't it? We dig up the past and then forget to write it down. Who is accountable? 🏛️
This is an old interview of Zeliangrong Nagas of Cachar, Assam
They're speaking in Bangla here, saying that they identify as Hindus
Since Christian Nagas don't come to their temples, they are requesting (Bengali) Hindus to come to their sacred sites like Bhuban Pahar (Bhuanchaniu Rakai) during Shivaratri, Magh Purnima, etc
The head says that they make special arrangements for Hindu pilgrims
A culture is more than just attire and language, customs and faith are just as crucial aspects to it
This is entirely misinformation.
If you have ever read a book by non-Christian Naga historians like Gangmumei Kamei, you will understand their concept of Khamthan Noushon (in Zeliangrongs) is similar to Brahma Vivaha of Hindus
From 1947 to 79 they cosplayed being Iranian. Their elites spoke (very bad) Farsi (note: Ayatollah Khamenei when asked, said Iqbal was his favourite Persian poet because “he didn’t understand the Persian idiom & wrote really strange Farsi” 😂😂)
In 1979 they started identifying as Arabs & changed their number plates to “Al Bakistan” because there isn’t a P in Arabic.
Then from 2014 they started identifying as Turks when Ertugrul became a hit.
Never seen a bunch so completely lacking in identity. There’s not one single cultural aspect that is uniquely theirs. Might as well change their name to Schizophrenistan.
A Hindu boy pretended to be a Pakistani Muslim and spoke to some Muslim boys living in India.
During the conversation, the Indian Muslim boys openly expressed their hatred toward Hindus and even refused to consider India their own country. They said that their first support was for Pakistan because Pakistanis are their Muslim brothers. One of them went a step further and said that Pakistan should launch a missile attack on India.
And then, when someone calls them traitors, they pretend to get offended
