My native land, which we call in bangla as “Dada Bari/Graamer Bari”, is situated in the District of Sherpur. It is among the least popular districts and people often mix it up with Bogra-Sherpur. But the district is very rich in the sense of natural beauty. Few people other than the district people could explore it properly. Those who couldn’t yet figure out where the district is actually situated, It is straight above Dhaka in the map of Bangladesh. It is also a border district neighboring the TURA in the Indian side, and Mymensingh, Jamalpur and Netrokona inside Bangladesh. The distance from Dhaka is about 180 KM, but the distance may vary as there are some other routes other than the main Dhaka-Mymensingh-Sherpur route. The old route was through Tangail-Jamalapur. I still remember the days when we used to go through that route, as it was like a journey with a BUMPER CAR. But the communication is so easy now a days that, I start from the garage of my Dhaka residence, and I get down from the car at the garage of my “Graamer Baari”. “Gazni” is the most well known place in this district, full of hills, forests, picnic spot and a nice lake… I’ll definitely write more about sherpur as I think people should know about this district. But I’ll have to go to bed early because my mother came to my room while I was writing this post and warned me that its me who have to drive the 180 KM distance. Inshallah, I’ll try to write something about my native land while I’ll be at my native land… Till then… Goodbye…
