Pakistan and Bangladesh share similar cultural heritage and history. After the partition of Indian subcontinent in August 1947, Bangladesh, erstwhile East Pakistan became the part of newly independent state of Pakistan (West Pakistan). In 1971, East Pakistan got separated from West Pakistan and became Bangladesh. The national language of Bangladesh is Bengali.
