Organized effort to achieve a goal
Contexte culturel
The 'Language Movement' (Bhasha Andolon) is the foundation of the nation. It's why International Mother Language Day exists. Kolkata is known as the 'City of Processions'. Movements (Andolon) are a daily part of the political landscape there. Bengalis abroad often organize 'Andolons' to support causes back home or to fight for immigrant rights. In both Bengals, universities are the 'cradles of movement'. Most major national movements started in student halls.
Pair with 'দাবি'
Always mention the 'dabi' (demand) when talking about an 'andolon' to sound more natural.
Avoid 'Exercise' confusion
Never use this for physical fitness; it's a common mistake for English speakers.
