“Bengalis are Cowards”

“Bengalis are cowards”, “Bengalis were never warriors”, said some people said on my reels (I couldn’t track those comments, would have shared screenshots otherwise; lesson learnt; will now keep screenshots for posterity).

Anyway, evidently they skipped essential history lessons, so heres’s a really short one.

From the Sanyasi Rebellion of 1770 to Subhas Chandra Bose’s Indian National Army, from secret societies like Anushilan Samiti and Jugantar to the highest number of freedom fighters imprisoned in Kala Pani
Bengal didn’t just join the revolution, it ignited it.

Coward? Not really.
