Trust the people, not the party platform—Independent candidate Tasnim Zara

Tasnim Zara announced that, due to the current political realities, she has decided not to contest the election as a candidate of any political party or alliance. Instead, she will run as an independent candidate from Dhaka-9, reaffirming her commitment to serve her community and promote a new political culture.

She emphasized that, unlike party-backed candidates, she will not have institutional support, making public backing her only strength. She also called for urgent public assistance to collect the legally required voter signatures to qualify as an independent candidate.

Additionally, she addressed previous campaign donations, stating that anyone who wishes to receive a refund due to her change in candidacy can do so through a transparent verification process.

Nation Mourns as Mukti Bahini’s Deputy Chief of Staff, Bir Uttom A.K. Khandker, Passes Away |
A LIFE THAT GAVE US A SKY TO BREATHE FREELY

Air Vice Marshal (Retd.) A.K. Khandker, Bir Uttom, was not just a military leader—he was one of the architects of our freedom. As Deputy Chief of Staff of the Mukti Bahini during the Liberation War of 1971 and the first Chief of Air Staff of the Bangladesh Air Force, his courage together helped turn a dream of independence into a sovereign nation.

From the decisive moments of surrender to the building of our air force from ashes, his legacy is written into the history of Bangladesh. Today, we bow in gratitude to a man whose service gave wings to a nation and dignity to its skies.

His sacrifice endures. His leadership inspires.
Bangladesh remembers.

14 December 1971
On this dark day, the Gestapo-like forces of Al-Badr and Al-Shams carried out a calculated massacre of Bangladesh’s finest academics and professionals, seeking to plunge a newborn nation into intellectual ruin. Yet their attempt to cripple our future failed, Bangladesh prevailed.

HerNet family offers its deepest homage to the martyred intellectuals and their supreme sacrifice. May we always carry the courage to stand for truth, even unto martyrdom.
