The 46th death anniversary of National Poet Kazi Nazrul Islam is being observed in the country on Saturday in a befitting manner.
On August 27 (12 Bhadra of Bangla calendar year) in 1976, the poet breathed his last at the then PG Hospital, now Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University Hospital, in the capital of Dhaka. The poet was buried with state honour beside the Dhaka University central mosque.

Besides, Bangladesh Betar and Bangladesh Television, and other private television channels and radio stations are airing special programmes, while the national dailies have published special supplements.
Kazi Nazrul was a poet, lyricist, musician and philosopher.The nation got inspiration from Nazrul's poems and songs during the great Liberation War in 1971 and all other democratic movements and struggles.
Nazrul wrote nearly 3,000 songs and composed many of them which are known as Nazrul-Geeti or Nazrul Sangeet.
After the independence of Bangladesh, Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman brought poet Nazrul Islam to Dhaka from Kolkata along with his family and made arrangements for living with state honour.Bangabandhu also provided a residence for the family of the poet in the city's Dhanmondi.
