It's pretty off topic but couldn't resist the chance to poke it here,
since when Bengali flag (or the color combination of red circle in
green) started to get associated Bengali as an Indian language.
This is pretty strange (or may be insulting to many) to see the
Bangladeshi national flag representing the message that Bengali is an
Indial language.
Now technically it's true that the language is shared by both country
and BD is part of indian sub-continent but hell I AM NOT an Indian.
Don't get me wrong. I am not attached to the concept of "Nationality"
but I sure do see it as a wrong message being promoted.
The traditional red circle on green represents Bengali flag which is
very seperate country than India and speaks its own language. The DO
NOT speak an Indian state language (as West bengal people).
The reason I object that this kind of message makes Indians ask
Bangladeshies that if they speak "hindi" in Bangladesh. Yes its a
common annoying question that you face nowdays. And everytime I have
faced this questions, i am irritated. I hope that you will too.at
