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.
