ShahidParibarKushtia Remembers the Thanapara Massacre

Why it surfaced

This focused public-history project gives a local atrocity a readable structure: the night’s account, family and eyewitness testimony, a documentary, a related book, and a list of identified and unidentified victims. Its insistence that names should not disappear makes the site feel less like a generic archive than a community’s act of remembrance.

A Bengali-English memorial site documenting the 28 August 1971 Thanapara massacre in Kushtia through names, testimony, photographs, and historical research.
