15th August A National Tragedy

The book had been contemplating to write down the incident of 15th August 1975 and reveal the facts for the posterity. This incident has created enough confusion in the minds of the people. The Author also need to clear his conscience by telling exactly what had happend. This incident was not only a tragedy for Bangabandhu's family, but also it was a National Tragedy for all of us The Bengali's. In Bangladesh nobody ever imagined that a tragedy of such nature and magnitude could take place in our country, particularly with regard to Bangabandhu. When an incident of such nature takes place concerning the national leaders, The people also has the right to know about its details. The Author to the best of his ability narrated the details as it happened It is now up to the readers to say what else. The Author could have done to combat the situation that he faced. The Author in his write-up might have been a bit impolite on some involved person in but he daos not regret that he mentioned them the way he did because what he wrote about them is what he believe they wery. The people should also know the truth. This was what the Author aimed at. Unfortunately he has been prosecuted in The people's court and was convicted without a trial in his absence The Author would like The readers to go through the details in this book and give their judgement thereafter. In any case The Author shirked his responsibilities and never disowned his failure.
