Satellite image of the cyclone nearing peak intensity on November 29

The1988 Bangladesh cyclone (designated asTropical Cyclone 04B by theJoint Typhoon Warning Center) was one of the worsttropical cyclones inBangladesh history. Striking in November 1988, the tropical system exacerbated the catastrophic damage from what was then considered the worst floods in Bangladesh's history. The tropical cyclone originated from a disturbance that developed within theStrait of Malacca on November 21. Tracking slowly westward, the initialtropical depression reachedtropical storm status in theAndaman Sea. On November 26, the storm reached an intensity equivalent to that of a modern-daysevere cyclonic storm and subsequently turned northward. Gradually intensifying as it had previously, the tropical cyclone reached peak intensity with winds of 125 mph (201 km/h) as it was makinglandfall near theBangladesh–India border on November 29. Although the storm retained strong winds well inland, it was last monitored over central Bangladesh as a moderate cyclonic storm-equivalent on November 30.

The brunt of the tropical cyclone's damage was inflicted upon coastal areas of Bangladesh andWest Bengal. A total of 6,240 people were killed as a result of the storm, with 5,708 in Bangladesh and 538 in West Bengal. Many of the deaths were a result of the destruction of homes or electrocution after strong winds toppled power poles across the region. Along the coast of Bangladesh, strongstorm surge caused heavy infrastructure damage and contributed in wiping out an estimated 70% of all harvestable Bangladeshi crops, with an estimated 200,000 tonnes (220,000 tons) of crops being lost. Widespreadpower outages cut telecommunications across Bangladesh; inDhaka, Bangladesh's capital city, debris-laden streets paralyzed traffic while electrical outages caused water shortages.

Ahsan Manzil, seat of the Nawab ofDhaka

TheNawab of Dhaka (Bengali: "ঢাকার নবাব"), originally spelt in EnglishNawab of Dacca, was the title of the head of one of the largest Muslimzamindar in British Bengal and Assam, based in present-dayDhaka,Bangladesh. The title ofnawab, similar to theBritish peerage, was conferred upon the head of the family byQueen Victoria as a recognition of the first Nawab's loyalty and contribution to the social welfare activities.

Although the Nawabs of Dhaka were not sovereigns, they played an essential role in the politics of South Asia—and the relations with external entities. The family was proprietary of the Dhaka Nawab estate, seated atAhsan Manzil palace. "Nawab of Dhaka" was the title of the head of the family from 1843.Khwaja Alimullah was the first holder of the title, andKhwaja Abdul Ghani was the first Nawab of Dhaka when the title was made hereditary by Queen Victoria.

Development of agricultural output of Bangladesh in 2019 US$ since 1961

Agriculture is the largestemployment sector inBangladesh, making up 14.2 percent of Bangladesh's GDP in 2017 and employing about 42.7 percent of the workforce. As of the financial year 2022 to 2023, the agricultural sector contributed to more than 12% of GDP. The performance of this sector has an overwhelming impact on major macroeconomic objectives like employment generation, poverty alleviation,human resources development,food security, and other economic and social forces. A plurality of Bangladeshis earn their living from agriculture. Due to a number of factors, Bangladesh's labour-intensive agriculture has achieved steady increases in food grain production despite the often unfavorable weather conditions. These include better flood control and irrigation, a generally more efficient use of fertilisers, as well as the establishment of better distribution and rural credit networks.

Althoughrice andjute are the primary crops, maize and vegetables are assuming greater importance. Due to the expansion of irrigation networks, some wheat producers have switched to cultivation ofmaize which is used mostly as poultry feed. Tea is grown in the northeast. There are 166 tea estates in Bangladesh, covering almost 280,000 acres of land. Bangladesh is the 9th largest Tea producer, producing around 2% of the world’s Tea production. Because of Bangladesh's fertile soil and normally ample water supply, rice can be grown and harvested three times a year in many areas. The country is among the top producers ofrice (third),potatoes (seventh),tropical fruits (sixth), jute (second), and farmed fish (fifth). With 35.8 million metric tons produced in 2000, rice is Bangladesh's principal crop. As of 2024, it is expected that rice production in Bangladesh will exceed 37.7 million metric tons, an increase of nearly 700000 tons from last year. Bangladesh produces almost 5 metric tons of rice per hectare, making the country self sufficient in rice production. In comparison to rice, wheat output in 1999 was 1.9 million tonnes (1,900,000 long tons; 2,100,000 short tons). (Full article...)

TheChakma orChanghma people (Chakma:𑄌𑄋𑄴𑄟𑄳𑄦, 𑄌𑄇𑄴𑄟), are an ethnic group and nation native to theIndian subcontinent andWestern Myanmar. They are the largest indigenous group as well as the second largest ethnic group of theChittagong Hill Tracts region of southeasternBangladesh. They also form the majority inChakma Autonomous District Council ofMizoram. Significant Chakma populations are found in thenortheast Indian states ofArunachal Pradesh,Tripura,Assam andRakhine State of Myanmar.

The Chakma possess strong ethnic affinities toTibeto-Burman-speaking groups in Northeast India. Due to a historicallanguage shift aimed at consolidating intertribal power, the Chakma adopted theIndo-Aryan Chakma language, which is closely related toPali and to theChittagonian language spoken in adjacent regions. Most modern Chakma people practiceTheravada Buddhism, due to 19th-century reforms and institutionalisation byQueen regnant Rani Kalindi. InMyanmar, Chakma people are known asDaingnet and are one of the 135 officially recognised ethnic groups in Myanmar. They are also referred as "Saks", "Sakmas" or "Tsakmas". (Full article...)

The Ganges inVaranasi

TheGanges (/ˈɡændʒiːz/GAN-jeez; in India:Ganga,/ˈɡʌŋɡɑː/GUNG-ah; in Bangladesh:Padma,/ˈpʌdmə/PUD-mə) is atrans-boundary river of Asia which flows throughIndia andBangladesh. The 2,525-kilometre-long (1,569 mi) river rises in the westernHimalayas in theIndian state ofUttarakhand. It flows south and east through theGangetic plain ofNorth India, receiving the right-bank tributary, theYamuna, which also rises in the western Indian Himalayas, and several left-bank tributaries fromNepal that account for the bulk of its flow. InWest Bengal, India, a feeder canal taking off from its right bank diverts 50% of its flow southwards, artificially connecting it to theHooghly River. The Ganges continues into Bangladesh, its name changing to thePadma. It is then joined by theJamuna, the lower stream of theBrahmaputra, and eventually theMeghna, forming the major estuary of theGanges Delta, and emptying into theBay of Bengal. The Ganges–Brahmaputra–Meghna system is thesecond-largest river on earth by discharge.

Themain stem of the Ganges begins at the town ofDevprayag, at the confluence of theAlaknanda, which is thesource stream inhydrology on account of its greater length, and theBhagirathi, which is considered the source stream inHindu mythology. (Full article...)

Selected biography

Bagha Jatin (Bengali:বাঘা যতীন), bornJatindranath Mukherjee (Jotindrônath Mukhopaddhæe) was aBengali Indian revolutionary philosopher againstBritish rule. Jatin was born on 7 December 1879 in Kayagram, a village in theKushtia subdivision ofNadia district in present dayBangladesh. Jatin spent his early life at in his ancestral home atJhenaidah and in his maternal home atKushtia. He moved to Calcutta after passing the Entrance examination. Several sources mention Jatin as being among the founders of theAnushilan Samiti in 1900. TheSamiti activities subsequently spread to many of the districts of Bengal flourished particularly at Kushtia, where Jatindra Nath was the leader. In 1906 Jatin servived an attack by aBengal Tiger and managed to kill the tiger with only a dagger. This act of heroism made him famous.

A few years later Jatin became the principal leader of theYugantar party that was the central association of revolutionaries inBengal. Having personally met the German Crown-Prince in Calcutta shortly before the World War I, he had obtained the promise of arms and ammunition from Germany; as such, he was responsible for the plannedGerman Plot duringWorld War I. Another of his original contributions was the indoctrination of the Indian soldiers in various regiments in favour of an insurrection. Bagha Jatin was injured by police bullets near Chashakhand in Balasore. He died in Balasore hospital on 10 September 1915. (more)
