The picture of the week – Joy Bangla!
In Bengali: জয় বাংলা, is a salutation, slogan, and war cry most commonly used in Bangladesh and West Bengal. It carries the pride and nationalism of the cultural and historical region of Bengal, meaning “Victory for Bengal” or “Hail Bengal”. These kids here from the orphanage in Dinajpur, nationalism, however, is likely to be a stranger. Proud? They are all… Our thanks go to Wilfried, the photographer. THANK YOU!
