Google has written on their doodle page, today's doodle is remembering Bengali poet, musician, writer Kazi Nazrul Islam. Nazrul's voice was vocal in favor of the Indian independence movement. As he spoke in favor of tolerance and freedom, he had a strong voice in the fight against injustice, which earned him the title of Rebel Poet.
Poet Nazrul was born in 1899 in the present-day Bardhaman district. He had a penchant for poetry and literature since childhood. His rebellious poem was published in 1922, which took a strong stand against colonialism and global oppression. Today's doodle artwork is inspired by it.
Not just poetry, he has written more than 4,000 songs, known as Nazrul Geeti. In 1972, he was given the status of the National Poet of Bangladesh.
