What is 15 August in Bangladesh?

| Bangladesh National Mourning Day |
In 1975, 15 August was the darkest day for the entire Bengali
nation. There was a military coup started on this day by a few mid-levels ranked
army officers. And finally, that became brutal killing Sheikh Mujhibur Rahman
with his entire family. That was one of the saddest incidents for newborn Bangladesh.
There is no doubt that Sheikh Mujib is the one who had the most contribution in
independent of Bangladesh. But few greedy army officers wanted to get the power
and that’s why they planned this brutal killing.
