I think I have replied to similar question in the past. Here I would like to repeat a few paragraphs since these are interesting:

The culture of Bangladesh is quite distinct in nature and has got significant identity. It can easily be distinguished from other culture of the world. It is the product of this soil and suit the climate and ecology of the country.

The People of Bangladesh are born and brought up in this culture. They feel comfort in it. Now it has become a mirror of the national life of the Bangladeshis. So, the cultural policy of Bangladesh should be the central force in identifying positive national awareness.

This national cultural awareness worked as the main factor in the Language Movement of 1952 and the Liberation War of 1971. During the British and the Pakistani rule the people of Bangladesh was culturally handicapped.

Attempts were taken at that time to divert Bangalee culture to different directions. Rabindra songs were discouraged and stopped in Radio and Television. Proposal was also given by the Pakistani rulers to make Urdu as the only state language of Pakistan, which was strongly protested by the students of Dhaka University. A strong movement was launched by all sections of Bangalee People in 1952. This historic movement is known as "Language Movement". This Movement reached its culmination in the Liberation War of 1971. During this period national feelings were strongly felt by the sons of this soil. They became conscious of their traditional culture.

After the Liberation, the cultural policy took a new turn. The awareness of the need for a secular cultural policy in the country followed by the Governmental practice of Arts promotion has been growing since then. Although there is a great deal of traditional culture in Bangladesh, various new forms began to appear by this time.

At the same time efforts have been made to protect the indigenous Bangalee Culture from corruption and to promote it in its traditional form. Government of Bangladesh has taken all responsibilities for its protection, preservation and promotion. The lost elements are being discovered through researches and thereby revived in the national life. Active patronization is being extended to all who are engaged in the work of cultivating and promoting its various branches.

Hope above would suffice!
