Golam Sarwar was my mentor in practical journalism

April 1 is Golam Sarwa's bhai's birthday. On this day in 1943, he was born in Banaripara, Barisal district of then East Pakistan (now Bangladesh). Sarwar bhai never liked to celebrate his birthday; he found it amusing. He used to say, "If I tell people it's my birthday today, they'll think it's an April Fool's joke, and I never celebrate my birthday." Later, after his sons grew up, they organized celebrations for him.
