Loss of a Freedom Fighter

Interview with Shahzaman Mozumder Bir Protik

With sadness, we regret to share that on December 2nd, 2020 Shahzaman Mozumder Bir Protik passed away. The above video was taken as part of an effort to to connect Agami students with Freedom Fighters so they might learn about the history and independence of Bangladesh. Shahzaman Mozumder Bir Protik was a 1st year student of HSC level at Government Titumir College when he decided to join Liberation War as part of Sector-3.

His interview was taken by the students of Bangladesh Mohila Samity Primary School on January 22, 2020. The head teacher helped to organize the interview into a successful event in collaboration with Israt Sharmin, Manager of Agami’s Teachers’ Training program. Israt communicated with several schools, prepared questions, and managed paperwork. Despite all the challenges, Agami now has a valuable piece of history.

Please see more interviews and photos on our Students with Freedom Fighters. Agami remembers these great heroes during the month of December to celebrate the victory of the independence war for Bangladesh.
