Sheikh Mujibur Rahman
Sheikh Mujibur Rahman (1920-1975) was a prominent Bangladeshi politician and the founding leader of Bangladesh. He served as the country's first Prime Minister and later as its President. Known as 'Bangabandhu' or 'Friend of Bengal', Rahman played a crucial role in the country's struggle for independence from Pakistan in 1971. His legacy is deeply ingrained in Bangladeshi nationalism, and his historic residence in Dhanmondi 32 is considered a symbol of the nation's fight for freedom.
Born on Mar 17, 1920 (105 years old)
