सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि

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.
