Read the text below and answer the question 1, 2& 3
It was the night of 25th March,
1971. There was a full of quietness at Bangabandhu’s home at Dhanmondi Road No.
32 throughout the day. Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman and his family members
could apprehend that something tragic was going to happen. Gunshots were heard
around the city. Bangabandhu’s eldest son sheikh Kamal was out of home for
forming barricades against the Pakistan Army who had been killing people
indiscriminately that night. Bangabandhu decided to send the girls of the
family to a safer place for the night and he gave their responsibility to his
son in law Mr. Wazed Miah. bangabandhu’s daughter Sheikh Hasina, who was
expecting a baby soon along with her sister Sheikh Rehena and her cousin Farida
were sent to a house at Road no. 15, Dhanmondi for that night. Bangabandhu’s
wife Begum Fazilatunnesa Mujib, stayed with him.
Just before midnight Bangabandhu sent
the declaration of Independence to Mr. Zohur Ahmed Chowdhury at Chittagong via
wireless. At the darkest part of that night, the Pakistan Army surrounded his
home and started firing at random. The situation agitated Bangabandhu much and
he asked them to stop. But, soon he was instructed to get ready to go with
them. Begum Mujib packed his necessary belongings. After bangabandhu left, she
was at a loss what to do and where to go with her children. However, being a
supportive wife of the great leader all through her life, she soon pulled up
her mental strength. But, her anxiety continued till the end of the war.
The next day Begum Mujib had to leader
House No. 32 with her children and other members of her home. During the next
couple of months, they moved from one shelter to another in search of a safer
place. During their stay in those places,some people came forward to helping
them while some refused to give them shelter for fear of their own safety. When
their provision ran short, Sheikh Kamal, who had already joined the Liberation
War, came to them in disguise and delivered some money. Some very also
supported the family with money and food stuff.
So far the family members were
ignorant about Bangabandhu’s condition. Suddenly they came to know that he was
alive and had been taken to Pakistan. Begum Mujib started to keep contact with
Awami League leaders. But soon the family was taken to Dhanmondi, House No. 18
by the Pakistan Army and kept under house arrest. However, people would come to
their home with valuable information in disguise of vendors; also some would throw
pieces of waste paper with important information written on them.
In the month of May, the same year,
Pakistan Army set fire to Bangabandhu’s Tungipara home in front of his parents.
A young man from the village protested the evil deed and was shot dead. Both
parents of Bangabandhu’s fell ill in October and were admitted to the PG
Hospital. Begum Mujib and her family were allowed to visit them two or three
times a week for one hour. However, that created the opportunity for them to
establish a better communication with the freedom fighters.
Begum Mujib was extremely worried
about her children, especially her daughter Sheikh Hasina, because of her
health condition. However, she was not allowed by the Pakistani rulers to be
with her daughter Sheikh Hasina, when she was admitted to hospital. Mr. Wazed
Miah and Bangabandhu’s second son Sheikh Jamal accompanied Sheikh Hasina to the
hospital. Bangabandhu’s youngest sister, pretending to be a hospital attendant,
entered the hospital and looked after her niece. Sheikh Hasina was blessed with
a baby boy on 27 July who was later named Sajeeb Wazed Joy. As the Pakistan
Army often used to threaten Sheikh Jamal that they would hang him upside down,
he, finding an opportunity, fled from the hospital and joined the freedom
fighters.
Finally the Victory day arrived! There
was joy everywhere! But, Bangabandhu’s family was yet to be freed from
captivity. The Pakistani occupational forces were still cordoning Bangabandhu’s
house and firing at people rushing over there chanting ‘Joy Bangla’ the invigorating slogan of the Bangalees. But they
fled the next morning when the Indian Army came to rescue the family. Sheikh
Jamal returned home in the afternoon while Sheikh Kamal returned home the next
day. Nevertheless, the biggest anxiety of the family persisted- Bangabandhu was
yet to be released from Pakistani prison and they didn’t know when that great
moment would arrive and how.
