In a video message on Bangla New Year he called upon the countrymen to work with renewed pledge and enthusiasm to build a new Bangladesh.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe 2024 mass uprising has given us an opportunity to build a discrimination-free country. Let us not lose this opportunity. In this New Year, building a discrimination-free Bangladesh should be our pledge,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Terming \u2018Pahela Baishakh a day of harmony and great unity, the Chief Adviser said, \u201cToday is the day to make everyone closed.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThis New Year is the first new year of the new Bangladesh. Let\u2018s forget all the sorrows, grief, ugliness and bad of the past years and move forward with new determination and enthusiasm,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Urging all to play active role in protecting the country\u2019s culture and heritage and spread those across the world, Prof Yunus said on this day of Bangla Year, the country\u2019s people get the opportunity to present their long tradition to the new generation in a festive atmosphere and present those to the world too.<\/p>\n

“Pahela Baishakh is the festival of our lives, the universal festival of Bangalees. Wherever the Bangalees are in the world, today is a day of joy for all of us, a day of welcoming the new year,” he said.<\/p>\n

The Chief Adviser said the Bangla Year began as ‘crop year’ for the convenience of farming. And even today, country\u2019s farmers sow seeds and harvest crops counting the Bangla calendar, he said.<\/p>\n

Mentioning that ‘Halkhata’ is an integral part of the Bangla New Year, the Chief Adviser said even in modern times, the tradition of Halkhata is still maintained in the markets, towns and ports of Bangladesh.<\/p>\n

At Baisakhi fairs across the country, Prof Yunus said entrepreneurs showcase their creativity by making traditional shital pati, clay pots, pans, toys, hand-fans, etc. marking this occasion.<\/p>\n

He said various ethnic groups in the hills and plain lands are also celebrating Chaitra Sankranti and Bangla Nababarsha on a large scale this time.<\/p>\n

The Chief Adviser hoped that the Nababarsha 1432 will usher in good days for everyone unfolding profound joy for all. He wished all the programmes of Bangla New Year a good success.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
