A national flag is the symbol of a country. But our national flag is the symbols of our
independence and the glorious patriotism. About 3 million patriotic sacrificed
their lives to make the national flag. It is rectangular in shape. There is a red
circle in the middle of the green. The ratio of the length and width of the flag is
10:6. Late artist Kamrul Hasan designed it. It is hoisted on different national
occasions. It was first hoisted on the premises of the University of Dhaka on
the 2nd March 1971. The design of that flag was a little bit
different. Then the map of Bangladesh was in the middle of green color. Our
national flag is our identity. It encourages us to be united to keep up the
honor of our country. Later the map of Bangladesh was omitted from the
national flag. Our national flag is the symbol of our sovereignty. We gained
this flag by the martyrdom of 30 lakh people. In fact, it is made with a piece
of cloth but made of blood. We can uphold its honor by doing our national
duties properly.
