She convinced me to eat This in Bangladesh | Pakistan to Bangladesh

Okay man, you go first. Trucks and buses here… Okay… There are 3 cemeteries here. One is of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, one is of his mother, and another of his father. You’ll burn it then? This is for burning purposes? Okay… Now I understand. We only have slush ahead. Bismillah Ir Rahman Ir Raheem.

We started our journey at 5:20 in the morning. It was raining at that time, but as I came towards the South… We have to go up or down? Mawa. We’re riding towards Mawa. As I’m coming towards the South, rain has reduced and clouds have scattered,

So then I decided to talk to you. Thankfully we started on time, Alhamudillah, so we did not encounter any traffic so far. There will be a river called “Padma” after Mawa. We’ll cross that river, Inshallah.

Our first stop will be after 2.5 hours, that is after 180 Km, at the cemetery of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman. We’ll stop on the way if the weather remains pleasant and we find any interesting place. But, if it rains… Well, thanks to Allah, the rain has stopped now.

We can see no signs of rain in this area. I think it didn’t even rain here, it only rained on the other side. Because I wore the waterproof layer inside, I’m feeling really hot now because of the extra layer. It is still fine while I’m riding,

But if I stop even for a minute along the way, I’m in the position of a roasted chicken. These are the highways in Bangladesh. Let’s see how far they join us in our ride. So far they’re looking good. We have Banana trees on this side. We have greenery.

Feels good to be back on the motorcycle. Motorcycle is good, but it is some small for me as I have luggage on my back. So it’s becoming difficult for me to sit properly due to the luggage as the seat of this bike is very small.

So I’m sitting very uncomfortably because of the luggage. I think it would be a dream to ride in Bangladesh like earlier where we used to ride 700, 800, 1000 Km. I think we can cover 300-350 Km maximum in a whole day.

I was checking yesterday that the population of Bangladesh is around 17 crores. That is 170 million !! Bangladesh is one of the most densely populated countries in the world !! There is so much noise, rush and loudness everywhere here. But people are very friendly and very helpful.

We’ve also seen that so far. Well, our first toll plaza in Bangladesh. Let’s see do we have toll here for a motorcycle too or no. Salaam-Alaikum brother. -20 Taka. -Even for a motorcycle it is 20 Taka? Motorcycle also 20 Taka? 20 Taka for everything? -For small vehicles. -What?

-Only for motorcycle it is 20 Taka. -Oh, only for motorcycle it is 20 Taka. -For other vehicles it is other amount. -Oh okay. Thank you. Just strike it off. It’s written there as 20 Taka. Ah yes, okay. -Thank you. -Thank you. I keep it? Okay. -Where are you from? -From Pakistan.

-Pakistan? -Yeah. -You know Pakistan? -Yeah, I know Pakistan. -Okay, that’s good. -Yeah, I love Pakistan. -Oh, you love Pakistan? Who do you love? -We are brothers. -Yeah, ofcourse we are brothers. Who do you love in Pakistan? -Pardon…? -Who do you love Pakistan? -I love because they are the most famous cricket team,

And there are many famous places. -Yeah… Okay, thank you very much. Salaam-Alaikum. Because it is the morning time, there is no rush here and I could have some chat with him. Otherwise, works are done here in seconds.

The problem here is that the bike is small and I cannot stand up to show you. Salaam-Alaikum. How much? How much? -One hundred. -One hundred? Okay…not twenty? Because back there I paid 20. -No, in that place it’s 20, but in Padma it is 100. -Okay, 100. That’s the Padma bridge? -Yeah.

-Thank you. -Okay. -Good-bye. -Okay, thank you. Bye-bye. Salaam-Alaikum. This will open up now. Let’s go. Well, we have to pay 100 Taka at the Padma bridge. That is around 1 Dollar. That fish is very famous here.

So when we come here in the return journey, because it’s not even very far, so we’ll eat fish here at that time. We get the fish in the Mawa village at the back, it is a very famous fish of Padma river. This is the Padma river. Uh…Padma bridge.

In front us is Padma river here. Wow…it is a very large river guys. Guys, look at the Padma river here, it is flowing very fast. It is sunrise time so we are getting amazing view. Salaam-Alaikum brother. How are you? Can I stop here and take photo? -No? I have to go?

-Go. -Okay. I think our highway fun comes to an end here, and now we’re in a city called Banga. So we now entered here and these signboards are welcoming us this way. I think there are upcoming elections, or ongoing elections or there were elections recently.

So there’s so much noise about them right now. Politics… I’ve seen so much greenery here, and also there’s so much water here. And all along the way I’ve seen so much water. Either is this rain water, or they are rivers, or they are cultivating some crops.

I see people inside the water. So I think they could be some crops,it could be rice crop as it requires so much water. I can also see bamboos here. Is this Octane fuel? -Yeah, Octane fuel. -That one or this one? -This or that? Please do it full tank.

-Full tank? -Yeah, full tank. What is the name of this city? -Pardon…? -What is the name of this city? Banga? -Yeah, Vanga, -Oh okay, this is Vanga. -It is 7 Km in this direction. -Oh, Banga is 7 Km from here? -Yeah, this way. -Here, uh… Okay, make it full. What are they loading?

Hey brother, Salaam-Alaikum. -Walekum-Salaam brother. -How are you brother? What’s up? -Alhamdulillah, thank you. -Do you speak Urdu or Hindi? English? -Yeah, English. -Okay, you speak English. What is this? -This is Jhaturdiya Bazar. -Jhaturdiya Bazar. -Jhatudiya Bazar? -Yes. -Okay, what is this on this vehicle? Uh…come here. What is this? -This is Jute.

-Jute? -Yes. -Uh-huh. So how do you get the Jute? -Yes… -This is used to make clothes. -Ah okay, clothes are made using this jute? -Yes. -Okay…and this is bamboo? -Bamboo is used to construct houses and other structures. -Okay, so all there, all there, this is Jute?

-Over there? -All plants have different kinds of Jute. -Jute okay, but why is there so much water? -Water has been coming heavily only since some days. Some days ago there was no water here. -Okay. -At this time there is so much water here. -Because of rains? -Yes. -Okay.

So this water is not dangerous for Jute? -No, it is good for Jute. -Oh, okay. It is good for Jute? So okay, where will it go now? -Pardon? -Where will this Jute go now? -It will go to the Jute mill. -To the mill? -Yes, it will go to Jute mill. -Jute mill…okay.

-Then it is processed and then we make clothes. -Oh okay, I understand now. Okay…thank you. -Which country are you from? -I’m from Pakistan. -Pakistan? -Yeah. Okay brother, Salaam-Alaikum. I’m seeing this Jute crop for the first time in my life. I’ve heard a lot about Jute.

Dhaan(Paddy), well it is not Dhaan. Wheat is called Dhaan, but this is Jute. So we have Jute bazaar here. Wow…look at this bazaar. Trucks and buses are not stopping here. So this Jute is getting dried here, and then I think, the bamboo we have down there… These are Jute…

I think this is Jute. Is this Jute the one which we call Kana in Pakistan? Looks like…no, this isn’t that. This looks similar to that. Is it like some bamboo? I don’t know. Salaam-Alaikum brother. Assalamualaikum -Salaam. -You speak English? Urdu? Hindi? -No Hindi, we speak Bangla. -Bangla? English? -No.

-Urdu? Hindi? -No, only Bangla. -What is this? Jute? What is this? -Khori. Khori. -Khori? -Yeah. -So…what is it used for? -We cut it from there and put here. -Oh you cut it from there and kept here. Okay. -Yes. -Then it dries? That is made from this? -Yeah.

-Oh yeah, so that is Jute, right? -Yeah, Jute. -Jute is made from this? You then peel it like this? Okay, so that is made from this, and the fields there are Jute fields? -Yes. -Okay, I see. What is this? Sugarcane? Okay…thank you. Thank you. Now I understood that these crops are…

Okay man, you go first. Trucks and buses here are… All of these are hand-made. They cut it from there and bring it here, then they dry it first like them that are drying at the back.

After they dry, they separate them, I think they are hand-made, so they separate them and dry again. Then it goes to the Jute mills to get processed. It’s a lot of hard-work. I see one Jute farm here, so why not we go inside. Uh-huh… Salaam-Alaikum. So she is peeling it…

Do you speak English, Hindi, or Urdu? English? Okay, so what is she doing now? She is taking it out? -This is Jute. -Okay, Jute. All of this is Jute? -Okay…can I see one? -This is fibre. -Yeah yeah…Jute fibre. Can I see one of them?

So…how is she doing it? This is really interesting. Okay… So… -How fun is it? -How days it takes? -Somewhere around 15 days. -15 days? -We take out the water… -Yeah… Okay… -Then the fibre is extracted and washed with water. -Okay, so…

-We then dry it and then it’s ready for sale. -Ready for sale…okay. So you take it out… Okay… So they… Yeah, so this is the Jute thing. Okay. So…now there is no thread? Now this is gone. So then how will it come again and after how many days? So…

You take this out? So now she is taking this away from here, right? And then this one will go back in water? -No no, it will go to dry. -Oh okay, dry and then? Then it is lit on fire? -Fire? Okay. So, this is now for fire? -Yeah, for fire. And…oh, sorry.

Okay, so this is for fire, and this is for Jute? So I think all of them don’t give strings, only some of them gives strings, so she is now removing the strings and keeping them here. Now these strings will be dried there,

And the remaining of them are for fire. Okay, I understand now. Okay…thank you. The strings that she is extracting there, are later dried here. They will dry here, they will then load them into vehicles and take them to mills for processing. Wow !!

I’m seeing something like this for the first time, that we even such crops. Where are you coming brother? He’s carrying Jute. Is Jute grown in Pakistan? All these mills here… They’re all working here using their hands to extract the Jute. Wow !! This is an entire bazaar.

So…something new for me. Maybe it could be new for you as well, but atleast for me, this is new. If you see here, how beautiful scene it is here. On this side we have Banana trees, and on this side we have the Jute…

Their…we cannot call it a tee, it’s branches are drying up, Jute is being dried here, we also have greenery here, and I think these are Mango trees. So it is very beautiful here. Guys, now we are just 10 Km away from the mausoleum of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman.

Mausoleum of Father of the Nation. It is just 10 Km away. Well guys, we’re not at the Mausoleum of Father of the Nation, Sheikh Mujibur Rahman But where do we park the bike here? Why is it closed? Salaam-Alaikum. -Walekum-Salaam. Is it open? Is it open? Can I go inside? English? Hindi? Urdu?

Do you know Urdu, Hindi or English? Can I go inside to see? Okay…motorcycle there, and then come? -Park it here. -Okay…okay. Let’s park it here so that even the rain doesn’t falls on it. So guys, I’ve now reached Tungipara.

Tungipara is the place where Sheikh Mujibur Rahman (Father of the Nation in Bangladesh) was born, and we also have his mausoleum here. Sheikh Mujibur Rahman was born here in Tungipara on 17th March, 1920. He died on 15th August 1975.

His guards assassinated him and many of his family members in his presidential complex in Dhaka. We have his mausoleum here in Tungipara. It is a very beautiful mausoleum. Look at this. They built this waterfall like structure here, we have many trees in the background which are very beautiful and old.

Here we have his mausoleum. Where is the entrance to the mausoleum? -Entrance to the mausoleum is over there. -It’s from there? -Yes…yes. Okay… I think some coast guard chief will now come here, and he will… -No video? -No, it’s not allowed. -Maybe for 20 seconds inside. -No, video is not allowed.

-It is not allowed inside the mausoleum. No, it’s not allowed. -No video allowed? Okay. As you’ve seen earlier. It is the same everywhere. Especially here at Sheikh Mujib’s mausoleum, you first take off your footwear, and then enter inside very politely. You go inside and you will find 3 cemeteries there.

One is of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, one is of his mother, and another of his father. So there are these 3 cemeteries inside. So you take off your shoes, and clicking pictures inside mausoleum is prohibited, and you can only take still photos outside. and videos are totally not allowed.

Outside here, we have this very large complex, and we have all these trees here. They’re very old, I don’t know which trees are they. Very…very beautiful, very green, and very interesting. This way? What is this? -It is the exit. Exit? Okay, so this means exit. Yeah…okay. thank you. Salaam-Alaikum.

Outside the Mausoleum, there are some of these stalls selling food and drinks. Because I came early morning here, Many shops isn’t taking so much. But we’ll get food and drinks here. I’ll go there now, so let’s have some Tea, We have Tea here. Do you have Tea? -Yeah, milk Tea.
