Paragraph on First Day of The Bengali New Year

The first day of the Bangla New Year is called Pahela Baishakh. It's a really important celebration for the people of Bangladesh. Every year, we celebrate this day all across the country with a lot of excitement and joy. It's a special festival that is loved by everyone, no matter their social class or community. On this day, we have a day off from work and school.

A unique tradition on Pahela Baishakh is that shopkeepers open new account books and celebrate with a festival called Halkhata. They invite their customers and offer them sweets and other food. It's a time for customers to pay any outstanding dues they have from the past year. In the villages, there's also a fair called Baishakhi Mela, which people of all classes really enjoy.

In the capital city, the day begins with celebrations by Chhayanat, a popular cultural organization. Other institutions like Bangla Academy, National Museum, and National Press Club organize meetings and seminars. The Institute of Fine Arts at Dhaka University also puts on a colorful procession with people wearing different masks. The significance of the day is covered by various media outlets.

Overall, Pahela Baishakh is a national day that brings happiness and joy to every person in Bangladesh.
