Bangladesh Udichi Shilpigoshthi
Bangladesh Udichi Shilpigoshthi (Bengali: বাংলাদেশ উদীচী শিল্পীগোষ্ঠী) is the largest cultural organisation in Bangladesh. The organisation's goal is the struggle to build what it deems a just, free, and equal society. It was organised in East Pakistan by revolutionary novelists Satyen Sen, Ranesh Das Gupta along with numerous youths in 1968, and through 1971 it operated a cultural campaign. At the opening of the Bangladesh Liberation War, its members fought for independence. In 2013, the organisation was awarded the Ekushey Padak, the country's most prestigious award.[1][2][3]
