It is important to note that Bangladesh became the 136th member state of the UN on September 17, 1974, when it was formally admitted. Following a bloody liberation war, the nation attained freedom in 1971, marking the occasion of this milestone.
Bangladesh, a very young South Asian nation, has made impressive strides in a number of areas since joining the UN, including social reforms, economic expansion, and human development.
