‘Muktijoddha'-to-‘associate' shift upsets Bangla veterans
1 2 Kolkata: Bangladesh govt's ordinance, which has redefined the 'Freedom Fighter' status for those involved with the 1971 Liberation War, has sharp reactions from both sides of the border. The National Freedom Fighters Council (Amendment) Ordinance-2025 on Tuesday amended the previous National Freedom Fighters Council Act-2022. According to the ordinance, a 'Bir Muktijoddha' is defined as someone who, between March 26, 1971, and Dec 16, 1971, either prepared for war and received training at villages across Bangladesh, or crossed the border into India to enrol in various training camps with the aim of participating in the Liberation War. The new categories are 'Muktijuddher Shohojogi' (Liberation War associate), 'Muktijoddha Poribar' (family of a freedom fighter) and 'Muktijuddher Shohojogi Poribar' (family of a Liberation War associate). The initial confusion over Sheikh Mujibur Rahman's status as a Bir Muktijoddha was laid to rest with Faruk-e-Azam, advisor to the ministry of Liberation War affairs, saying Mujibur, along with the 400 leaders named in the news reports, were still recognised 'Muktijoddha'. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like This Is How Much New Windows Should Cost In 2025 Storm Through Windows Learn More Undo Swadhin Bangla Betar Kendra artists and personnel, Bangladeshi journalists who worked in support of the war and Swadhin Bangla football team members will now be considered Liberation War associates. A Bangladeshi national, who was commander of Dhaka north guerrilla unit and continues to be called a 'Bir Muktijoddha' as he was trained in India by the Indian Army and Bengal Regiment, opposed the move. "You can't push down artists and Swadhin Bangla Betar Kendra personnel, who were the main inspiration to citizens and freedom fighters, as associates. If Faruk-e-Azam's statement that the term 'associate' does not imply any reduction in respect, it must be notified in a gazette," he said. Mujib's contributions to the Liberation War have become an important topic of discussion. Kolkata-based director Soumitra Dastidar, now in Dhaka, said he believed the Liberation War was not an outcome of Mujib's call. "There is historical evidence supporting it. I support the decision to drop Mujibur's name from the definition of the Liberation War..." Dastidar said, pointing out he did not support renaming some as associates of the war. "It was a people's war. The mother, who cooked for fighters, or the boy, who sneaked in information, should be considered muktijoddhas." In the new ordinance, Mujib's reference as the 'Father of the Nation' has been dropped from the preamble of Bangladesh. In Kolkata, Abhijit Dasgupta, director of 'Invincible Bravura' on the formation of the first 'Nau Commando' in the 1971 war, opposed this step. "The new categories are adding to confusion. It should be categorically notified in a gazette to ensure that the contribution of all freedom fighters are acknowledged and honoured," Dasgupta said.

Stubble burning cases rise more than twofold from last year in division
Indore: Indore division has reported more than a twofold rise in stubble (crop residue) burning incidents after Rabi crop cultivation this year. This increase has prompted the state govt to explore action, including depriving farmers of direct financial benefits under the 'Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana'. According to official records, all eight districts under Indore division reported a total of 1,225 incidents of stubble burning between March 15 and June 30 last year. However, the figure is more than double from March 15 and May 29 this year. Against last year, this time, a total of 3,297 incidents were reported till May 29. The maximum incidents of stubble burning were reported in Indore district, with 1,544 this year, while a total of 608 incidents were reported last year. The neighbouring district, Dhar, followed Indore by reporting a total of 1,258 incidents of stubble burning this year, compared to 470 reported last year after the Rabi season. However, three tribal-dominated districts, including Jhabua, Alirajpur, and Barwani, reported incidents in single digits this year as well as last year. Stubble burning incidents in Burhanpur, which had reported a total of six incidents last year, increased to 18 this year. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch CFD với công nghệ và tốc độ tốt hơn IC Markets Đăng ký Undo This official data was revealed and discussed on Wednesday in a divisional meeting to review the Rabi-2025 season and plan for Kharif-2025, chaired by agriculture production commissioner Ashok Barnwal in Indore. He warned that those found burning stubble would be deprived of 'Kisan Samman Nidhi'. Despite issuing warnings, imposing penalties, and even lodging FIRs against farmers involved in stubble burning in Indore and other districts, a multifold rise in incidents was reported this year. The administration fined farmers for stubble burning, with penalties ranging from Rs 2,500 to Rs 15,000, depending on the size of the land. Despite the fines, the violators view the costs of alternatives like mechanical removal as higher than the penalty, sources said. According to experts, there is no 'proper' solution that farmers currently have, nor is the govt offering them a way to get rid of stubble to prepare the agricultural field for the next year. Collectors Present Their Innovative Approach In Agriculture The divisional level meeting on Wednesday saw agriculture production commissioner Ashok Barnwal reviewing the schemes, programmes, and achievements of agriculture, horticulture, food processing, cooperation, and other related institutions. Collectors from all eight districts presented the innovations being undertaken in the agricultural sector in their respective areas. Barnwal particularly commended Jhabua collector Neha Meena for her innovative approach in agriculture, specifically for the successful production of arhar (pigeon pea) Pusa-16, which yielded excellent results. He encouraged officials to urge farmers to focus on cultivating high-value crops. The commissioner directed cooperative bank officials to expedite agricultural loan recovery. He warned against any negligence, irregularity, or indiscipline in duties, stating that strict action would be taken against defaulting officers.
