Write a Paragraph on "Our National Flag."

A flag represents a country over the world. As we are a free nation, we have a glorious (মহিমান্বিত) national flag. It represents our freedom and sovereignty (সার্বভৌমত্ব). But, we have not got our national flag overnight (রাতারাতি). There is a long history of achieving our national flag. Before 26 March 1971, Bangladesh was not an independent country. She was a part of Pakistan and called East Pakistan then. We were deprived (বঞ্চিত) of our due rights (অধিকার). So, it was inevitable (অনিবার্য) to fight against Pakistan. Our freedom fighters flied the national flag and went for fight against the oppressive (নিপীড়ক) rulers. After a freedom fight of nine months, Bangladesh wins victory by a great sacrifice. Then our national flag flies in the free sky of Bangladesh. Thus, we have got our national flag. Our national flag has a fixed ratio (অনুপাত) of length and width which is 10:6. Our flag is the combination (সংমিশ্রণ) of two colours-green and red. The green colour symbolizes (প্রতীকী করে) evergreen beauty of our homeland while the red colour symbolizes blood given by our freedom fighters. We use our national flag when our educational institutions start every day. Different Govt. and non-Govt. offices also hoist (উত্তোলন) the national flag. We also hoist our flag in different national days and traditional occasions of Bangladesh. But it is kept half-mast (অর্ধনমিত) on any national or international mourning days (শোকের দিন). We are proud of our national flag. It is the source of our spirit (সাহসিকতা), hope and inspiration. It must be kept at its sublime (গৌরবময়/মহিমান্বিত) position at any cost.
