Ekushey-r Boi Mela in Dhaka
throughout the month of February is a national event. It is growing in
popularity and commercial value. In today's Hello Washington, our listeners
have asked questions on its possible expansion, wider online accessibility and
presence, crowd management and security, quality of books and other relevant
issues.
Today's guests include Syed Mohammad Shahed, DG Bangla Academy, popular
writer-playwright Imdadul Huq Milan and leading cultural activist-actor Aly
Zaker. They have addressed listeners' questions from different angles and
perspective and contributed to a lively dialogue.
