Mujibnagar (Bengali: মুজিবনগর), formerly known as Baidyanathtala (Boiddonathtola) and Bhoborpara, is a town in the Meherpur District of Bangladesh. The Provisional Government of Bangladesh was formed on 10 April 1971, however, sworn in on 17 April 1971 in this place by the elected representatives of the Bengalees (mostly belongling to Awami League), that led the Bangladesh Liberation War, who were leading the guerrilla war for the independence of Bangladesh (then East Pakistan) from Pakistan in 1971. The place was renamed Mujibnagar by the proclamation of independence,in honour of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, who declared Bangladesh independent.The actual capital of the government while in exile was Calcutta. A memorial complex covering 20.10 acres (8.13 ha) has been built at the site where the ministers of that first government took theiroaths. Throughout the war with the Pakistan Army, the Mujibnagar government would serve as the nominal head of the pro-independence guerrilla militias, mainly the Mukti Bahini. Although the state gained independence that was recognized by other countries only in December 1971, the Mujibnagar government is recognized as the first official government of Bangladesh. The Vice President of Bangladesh, Syed Nazrul Islam, performed the ceremony at Mujibnagar in the role of Acting President, because the President, Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, was detained in Pakistan throughout the war.
Mujibnagar was formerly a part of the Meherpur Sadar Upazila, before it was made a separate Upazila on 24 February 2000. The name Mujibnagar commemorates an event in the history of Bangladesh: It is the place where, on 17 April 1971, the first government of the People's Republic of Bangladesh was sworn in, and the place was named Mujibnagar after the name of the Father of the nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman.
Well planned motel.
