Abstract: Six points movement is a very important part for the Bangali Nation. Actually, East Bengal became a part of Pakistan after the division of Indian Sub-Continent in 1947. Afterwards, the people of East Bengal became a special part of oppression by the West Pakistani rulers. In order to get rid of that oppression and discrimination, the people of East Bengal started doing several movements in different times. Six points movement is one of them. With Six points movement, the people of East Bengal started protesting against the discriminations that they were facing. This movement was essentially a very important step towards gaining autonomy of East Bengal. The first point out of the Six points was to gain autonomy. Apart from that, currency, economy, military and other aspects were also there. At bottom, the six points were Bengali Nation’s record of freedom or ‘Magna Carta’. This paper delves deep into those discriminations the people of East Bengal were facing. Further, the demands of Six points movements and the importance of six points movement behind the independence of Bangladesh is also discussed here.
