Ekushey Book Fair

Ekushey Book Fair highlights the vibrancy of Bangla language and literature. Young people nowadays are more internet and Facebook oriented. This fair promotes among them the habit of reading. The Fair venue acts as a meeting place where the readers can meet their favourite authors.
However, the present political stalemate has cast a shadow on the Fair. Due to hartals and continuous blockades, readers and writers from outside of Dhaka cannot make it to the Fair. So I think book fairs like that should be held in other big cities too.
