Gaziul Haque chaired the meeting at the Dhaka University premises on February 21, 1952 from which the decision to violate Section 144 was made. Later that day police fired into the students who demanded equal status of Bangla along with Urdu.
On April 14, 1953 he was expelled from the university, for actively engaging in politics and his MA degree was suspended by the authorities. His degree was later restored and suspension lifted because of student protests. Haque was arrested again on February 19 of the following year, 1954, and released on April 18.
A lawyer by profession, Haque fought the liberation war bravely on Bogra frontline. Gaziul was also a celebrated singer and lyricist, with the song ‘Bhulbo na Bhulbo na Ekushey February’ being among the most inspirational pieces throughout generations. He was a capable and competitive athlete, having been a boxing champion in his youth. As a writer, some of his works include Jeler Kabita (1959), Ebarer Sangram Swadhinatar Sangram (1971), Bangladesh Unchained (1971), Mohammad Sultan (1994) and Media Laws and Regulations in Bangladesh (1992).
In a condolence message, President Zillur Rahman expressed his deep shock saying the death of Gaziul Haque is an irreparable loss for the nation.
"He played a significant role in all movements of democracy and peace imbued with the spirit of the War of Liberation," he said.
In a similar message, Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina said the demise of "the great patriotic educationist and intellectual is an irreparable loss to the nation."
