Flag Of Bangladesh
The national flag, national flag of Bangladesh, was adopted officially on 17 January 1972. It consists of a red disc or sun on top of a dark green banner. The red disc is offset slightly toward the hoist so that it appears centered when the flag is flying. While there are many interpretations, according to Shib Narayan Das who put the map on the first flag design, green on the flag represented the landscape and the red circle represented the sun, symbolising a new day and end of oppression. The flag is based on a similar flag used during the Bangladesh Liberation War of 1971, which had a yellow map of the country inside the red disc. In 1972 this map was removed from the flag. One reason given was the difficulty for rendering the map correctly on both sides of the flag. The civil ensign and naval ensign place it in the Flag terminology, canton of a red or white field, respectively. Origin The first version of the flag was designed and made by a section of student leaders and activ ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Abdus Sattar
ʻAbd al-Sattār (ALA-LC romanization of ar, عبد الستّار) is an Arabic Muslim male given name, built on the Arabic words '' ʻabd'' and ''al-Sattār''. The name means "servant of the Veiler (of sins)". Because the letter s is a sun letter, the letter l of the ''al-'' is usually assimilated to it. Thus although the name is written with letters corresponding to ''Abd al-Sattar'', the usual pronunciation corresponds to ''Abd as-Sattar''. Alternative transliterations include ''Abdus Sattar'', ''Abd al-Sattar'' and others, all subject to variant spacing and hyphenation. It may refer to: * Abd al-Sattar Qasim *Abdus Sattar (president) (1906–1985), Bangladeshi jurist and politician who served as president of Bangladesh, November 1981 to March 1982 *Maulana Abdul Sattar Khan Niazi (1915–2001), Pakistani religious and political leader * Abdus Sattar (Murshidabad politician) (1925-1991), Indian National Congress politician *Mohammad Abdus Sattar (1925–2011), Indian footballe ...
