Manik Mia

Shaheed Manik Mia was born on July 22, 1998, in Munshiganj District. His father is Md. Anis Chowdhury, and his mother is the late Kaniz Rabel. The motherless Shaheed Manik Mia was a student at Government Tularam College. His mother passed away six years before Manik Mia's death. His 65-year-old father supported the family, consisting of two sons and a daughter, through farming. Having no land other than their homestead, he cultivated land on lease. Shaheed Manik Mia financially supported his family by tutoring and freelancing alongside his studies. His father's dream was that his son, Shaheed Manik Mia, would take care of the family after completing his education. With the death of Shaheed Manik Mia, that dream was nipped in the bud. His brother, sister, and father became completely helpless after his death. With the sole breadwinner Martyred, there was no one left in the family to earn the livelihood of the family.
Context of Martyrdom
The anti-quota movement eventually transformed into the anti-discrimination student movement. The anti-discrimination student movement ultimately turned into a single-point movement against the fascist Hasina. Students and the general public of the country united in demanding the resignation of the murderer Hasina. Residents of the capital Dhaka risked their lives and plunged into an all-out movement. On August 5, 2024, the anti-discrimination student movement called for a nationwide "March to Dhaka" program. As part of this program, activists of the anti-discrimination student movement took positions in the Chankharpul area of Dhaka. At 11:30 AM, the Jubo League, Chhatra League terrorists, and police, unleashed by the autocratic fascist murderer Hasina, attacked the program with deadly weapons. At this time, Shaheed Manik Mia was shot in the head and fell to the ground. Local people took him to Dhaka Medical College Hospital. There, while undergoing treatment, he answered the call of Almighty Allah at 12:30 PM and departed from this world forever. He sacrificed himself for the welfare of the country and the nation just a few hours before victory.
