Which day is recognised as the 'National Genocide Day'?

Think it through first, then pick an option.

  1. a 25 March
  2. b 26 March
  3. c 27 March
  4. d 28 March
Answer and explanation

Correct answer: a 25 March

The book says the night of 25 March is now recognised as National Genocide Day.

Why the other options are wrong

  • b 26 March: 26 March is the day of the declaration of independence; the Genocide Day is 25 March.
  • c 27 March: On 27 March Ziaur Rahman declared again on behalf of Sheikh Mujib; the Genocide Day is 25 March.
  • d 28 March: The book mentions no such day on 28 March; the Genocide Day is 25 March.
