544 বাংলাদেশের স্বাধীনতা যুদ্ধ দলিলপত্রঃ ষষ্ঠ খণ্ড শিরোনাম সংবাদপত্র তারিখ Capital Calling The Nation 8 October, 1971 Vol. 1 : No. 2 CAPITAL CALLING ΤΗΕ ΝΑΤΙΟΝ RΕΡΟRΤ The otherwise monotonous tone of confusion in the minds of certain section of Bangladesh regarding the unified nature of the freedom struggle has at last been allayed. The fight for independence is the fight of all Bengalees, irrespective of party affiliations, caste or creed.

This is time to talk in a guarded Language weighing the pros and cons of every utterance that we make. The Bengali nation has set up example after example through their enviable performances. After setting a record in the history of elections the democracy loving people of Bangladesh have turned revolutionaries. They have responded quickly to the demand of the circumstances after March 25 crackdown culminating in the worst genocide of the living memory. Yes, they have responded. Each and every Bengali has
