Changing Cultural Patterns in Bangladesh

Bangladeshi culture is gradually being replaced by the alien culture. At present satellite channels are playing the vital role in this regard. Bangladesh is rich in traditional folk songs.

They reflect the life & mind of her people more faithfully than anything else. Our people are also fond of modern Bengali songs. But our songs are being invaded by the western music, band music & pop song. We should guard against their harmful effect & accept their good qualities only. The changes of the entertaining sources should not be encouraged. To preserve our culture is our sacred duty. In other words, culture reflects the inner life of a nation.
