World Heritage Sites in Bangladesh

A World Heritage Site is a place (natural or cultural) recognised by the international community in the shape of the World Heritage Convention declared by UNESCO in 1972. It is historically and geographically important. It possesses an universal value and it is a collective responsibility of the world's people to preserve it. Bangladesh is a small country. Though a small country, Bangladesh has three World Heritage Sites : the historic Shatgombuj Mosque of Bagerhat, the ruins of the Buddhist Vihar at Paharpur and the Sundarbans. The Shatgombuj Mosque is a 15th Century Islamic edifice. It is an enormous Moghul architectural site covering a very large area. It has sixty pillars, which support seventy seven exquisitely curved domes. The Buddhist Vihar at Paharpur was founded in the 7th century. Its layout is perfectly adapted to its religious function. It is the largest single Buddhist monastery in the Indian subcontinent. It was declared a World Heritage Site in 1986. The Sundarbans is the 52nd World Heritage Site in the world. It is a mangrove forest and it is famous for its natural beauty. The world famous Royal Bengal Tiger lives in this forest. It has a peaceful atmosphere. It is renowned for its great variety of wild life. These are our pride. We should be aware of our duties and responsibilities regarding the World Heritage Sites.

বাংলাদেশে বিশ্ব ঐতিহ্যবাহী স্থানসমূহ

ওয়ার্ল্ড হেরিটেজ সাইট হচ্ছে ১৯৭২ সালে ইউনেস্কো ঘোষিত ওয়ার্ল্ড হেরিটেজ কনভেনশনের আলোকে আন্তর্জাতিক সম্প্রদায় দ্বারা স্বীকৃত একটি স্থান (প্রাকৃতিক কিংবা সাংস্কৃতিক)। এটি ঐতিহাসিক এবং ভৌগোলিকভাবে গুরুত্বপূর্ণ। এর পৃথিবীব্যাপী মূল্য আছে এবং একে রক্ষা করা পুরো বিশ্বের মানুষের সামগ্রিক দায়িত্ব। বাংলাদেশ একটি ক্ষুদ্র দেশ। ক্ষুদ্র দেশ হলেও বাংলাদেশের তিনটি বিশ্ব ঐতিহ্যবাহী স্থান রয়েছেঃ বাগেরহাটের ঐতিহাসিক ষাটগম্বুজ মসজিদ, পাহাড়পুরের ধ্বংসপ্রাপ্ত বৌদ্ধ বিহার এবং সুন্দরবন। ষাটগম্বুজ মসজিদ হচ্ছে ১৫শ শতকের ইসলামিক অট্টালিকা। এটি একটি ব্যাপক জায়গা বিস্তৃত মুঘল স্থাপত্য শিল্পের বৃহদাকার নিদর্শন। এর ষাটটি স্তম্ভ আছে, যা অত্যন্ত সুন্দরভাবে সাতাত্তরটি বাঁকানো গম্বুজের ভার বহন করে। পাহাড়পুরের বৌদ্ধ বিহার সপ্তম শতাব্দীতে স্থাপিত হয়। ধর্মীয় কাজের কথা মাথায় রেখে এর স্থাপনা পরিকল্পনা করা হয়েছে। এটি ভারত উপমহাদেশে অবস্থিত একমাত্র এবং সবচেয়ে বড় বৌদ্ধ মঠ। এটি ১৯৮৬ সালে বিশ্ব ঐতিহ্যবাহী স্থান হিসেবে ঘোষিত হয়। সুন্দরবন বিশ্বের ঐতিহ্যবাহী স্থানসমূহের মধ্যে ৫২ তম। এটি একটি ম্যানগ্রোভ বন এবং এটি এর প্রাকৃতিক সৌন্দর্যের কারণে বিখ্যাত। বিশ্বখ্যাত রয়েল বেঙ্গল টাইগার এই বনে বাস করে। এর পরিবেশ খুবই শান্তিপূর্ণ। এটি বন্যপ্রাণীর বৈচিত্র্যতার কারণে প্রসিদ্ধ। এগুলো আমাদের গর্ব। বিশ্ব ঐতিহ্যবাহী স্থানসমূহের প্রতি আমাদের দায়িত্ব ও কর্তব্যের ব্যাপারে আমাদের সচেতন হওয়া উচিত।

Adolescence paragraph

Adolescence

Children pass through several stages to become adult. There are four or five stages of growth: infancy, early childhood, later childhood, and adolescence. There are some who try to act older than their age. But most persons go through these stages whatever their economic or social status is. Adolescence generally covers from 13 to 18 years of age of a person. During this phase, one experiences critical transition like growing from childhood to adulthood and puberty. However, many adolescents face pressure to become alcoholic, drug-addict or chain-smoker that creates their health problems. These practices put them to high risk for intentional and unintentional injuries, unintended pregnancies and infections from HIV. These exert long-lasting effects on future health and well-being. They are not fully capable of understanding sexual practices and this incapability may make them particularly vulnerable to sexual exploitation and high-risk behaviors. Moreover, laws and policies often restrict unmarried adolescents' access to reproductive issues. For a solution, what older ones should do is to change their outlook about the adolescents and youths, treat them properly and also talk to them about various personal problems with an open up mind. They should go forward with a new look to build up them for the sake of the country's welfare.

বয়ঃসন্ধিকাল

প্রাপ্তবয়স্ক হওয়ার পথে শিশুরা কতিপয় পর্যায় অতিক্রম করে। বয়:প্রাপ্তির চার-পাঁচটি পর্যায় রয়েছে: শৈশব, প্রাথমিক শিশুকাল, পরবর্তী শিশুকাল ও বয়:সন্ধিকাল। কিছু শিশু রয়েছে যারা তাদের বয়সের তুলনায় বড়’র মতো কাজ করে। কিন্তু আর্থ-সামাজিক মর্যাদা নির্বিশেষে কিছু ব্যক্তি এসব পর্যায়ের ভেতর দিয়ে অগ্রসর হয়। কিশোর বলতে সাধারণভাবে একজন ব্যক্তির ১৩ থেকে ১৮ বছর বয়সসীমাকে বোঝায়। এ কালপর্বে একজন ব্যক্তি শৈশব থেকে প্রাপ্তবয়স্কতা ও যৌন ক্ষমতা অর্জনের মত ক্রান্তিকালের অভিজ্ঞতা লাভ করে। যা হোক, বহু কিশোর মদ্যপ, মাদকাসক্ত কিংবা অবিরাম ধূমপায়ী হতে চাপ বোধ করে যা তাদের স্বাস্থ্য সমস্যা সৃষ্টি করে। এসব অভ্যাস উদ্দেশ্যপূর্ণ ও উদ্দেশ্যহীন আহতাবস্থা, অপরিকল্পিত গর্ভধারণ ও এইচআইভি সংক্রমণের উচ্চ ঝুঁকিতে ফেলে। এগুলো ভবিষ্যৎ স্বাস্থ্য ও সুস্থতার ওপর দীর্ঘস্থায়ী প্রভাব ফেলে। তারা যৌন আচরণগুলো অনুধাবনে পুরোপুরি সক্ষম নয় এবং এই সামর্থ্যহীনতা তাদেরকে যৌন নির্যাতন ও উচ্চ ঝুঁকির আচরণের প্রতি বিশেষভাবে দুর্বল করে তুলতে পারে। তদুপরি, আইন ও রীতি প্রায়ই অবিবাহিত তরুণদের প্রজনন সম্পৃক্ত বিষয়গুলো জানার ক্ষেত্রে সীমাবদ্ধতা আরোপ করে। এ সমস্যা সমাধানার্থে, বয়স্কদের যা করা উচিত তা হচ্ছে তরুণ ও যুবকদের সম্পর্কে দৃষ্টিভঙ্গি পাল্টানো, তাদের সাথে সঙ্গত আচরণ করা এবং সে সাথে মুক্ত মন নিয়ে তাদের সাথে বিভিন্ন ব্যক্তিগত বিষয় নিয়ে কথা বলা। তাদের উচিত দেশের কল্যাণের জন্য তরুণদের গড়তে নতুন দৃষ্টিভঙ্গি নিয়ে এগিয়ে যাওয়া।
