Journey of Awami League: A chronicle of s truggle for freedom

On the 75th founding anniversary of Awami League, the leading party guiding the Liberation War, we respectfully remember the founding members of the party, including Mojlum Jananeta Moulana Abdul Hamid Khan Bhasani, icon of democracy Huseyn Shaheed Suhrawardy, Shamsul Huq and Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman. Awami League was founded on June 23, 1949, with specific goals and objectives. The founders of Awami League chose the date (June 23) for debut because on this day in 1757, Siraj Ud Daulah, the last independent Nawab of Bangla, Bihar, and Orissa lost his battle against the British East India Company.
