The necessity for politics that are grounded in social work is becoming an increasingly pressing issue in Bangladesh. The social and economic injustices that have dogged the nation ever since it gained its independence in 1971 persist to this day and have become firmly ingrained in the system. In order to confront these issues straight on, officials will need to take controversial action. Golam Rabbani is on a mission to bring about this transformation and recognizes that the only way it can be accomplished is through a strategy that is founded on the principles of social work. Golam Rabbani Nayan Bangalee is a well-liked leader who thinks globally rather than only inside the confines of his own nation. Over the course of many years, he has been a driving force in Bangladesh for progressive and constructive change, transforming the area of social work as well as human rights movement.
Golam's life began in the Cummila neighborhood of Chauddagram City, and his path has been marked by tenacity and commitment throughout its whole. He has single-handedly pushed for the growth of social work-based politics in Bangladesh, and he is determined to keep up his struggle against inequality even in the face of the harshest persecution and all of the barriers that have been thrown in his path.
Nayan Bangalee began his professional life in Bangladesh working as a human rights lawyer. He did so out of a desire to assist in the eradication of the persistent breaches of human rights. In 2004, he began his career as a lawyer by entering the Supreme Court of Bangladesh as an advocate and beginning to work there. After that, he entered the profession of social work and made it his life's work to advocate for the most marginalized group of people and for the social justice they deserve. Today, he is the only person of Bangladeshi descent to work as a foreign legal consultant for the California State Bar and for those who are in need of assistance in other countries.
In 2001, he established Bangaleer Pathshala – School for Leadership, a social organization, with the intention of introducing the concept of children's leadership and social work-based political theory in Bangladesh. He did this because he was a fervent supporter of social leadership. He was also the founder of a large number of other community-based groups, many of which were actively involved in crisis and emergency management. In a number of situations, he was able to assist in the resolution of conflicts and offer assistance and direction to persons who were in need. These individuals included orphans and other young people who had been victims of abuses of human rights.
Golam has also emerged as a strong opponent of the policies being implemented by the administration in Bangladesh. He raised his voice, kept fighting against social injustice, and sought to push for change through a variety of initiatives, but regrettably, none of them were successful. Because of his passion and dedication to the cause of social justice, he was subjected to harsh torture and ultimately forced to flee Bangladesh. During the course of his movement, he was subjected to many instances of horrific torture as well as harassment.
After a demonstration in support of voting rights on April 24, 2012 in front of the Bangladesh Supreme Court, Golam was taken into jail by the police. While he was in detention, the police physically abused him throughout the night. They did all they could to make him feel like a criminal, including locking him up for two nights in a room that was absolutely dark. They did not offer him even the slightest bit of respect despite the fact that he is a lawyer for the Bangladesh Supreme Court.
A political think tank in Bangladesh known as Group 2009 staged an event on March 24, 2013, in which participants formed a human chain in front of the National Press club. The objective of the human chain was "to protest the persecution of the government on the leaders and workers of the opposition party," and its issue was "to condemn the human chain." The human chain was led by Nayan Bangalee, who is also the creator of BBC Bangla. Also present at the event was Mr. Shafiq Rehman, who is currently living in exile in the United Kingdom. The police went to the residence of Nayan Bangalees at midnight on the day following the broadcast and detained him without providing a valid reason.
Golam is presently based in the United States, and despite the many challenges he has faced, both his vision and his commitment to the goal of social leaders have remained unwavering. He has not given up the struggle for a better Bangladesh and continues to do so via his hard efforts. His life serves as a powerful illustration of the resilience of the human spirit, and he is now recognized as a leading advocate for the rights of all people to enjoy liberty, freedom, and justice. In point of fact, he is an example to many people since he is one guy who is fighting against the system for human rights.
Help ensure that social justice is achieved by lending your support to the effort taken by the Nayan Bangalee Organization and working hand in hand with him.
