Qasa wants your views on people being fined for travelling abroad without a good reason.

It’s 50 years since the independence of Bangladesh. Every day this week, we’ll be playing an episode from our documentary ‘Bangladesh at 50’.

Today Bangladeshis are one of the UK’s youngest and fastest growing communities, with a culture and language of their own. Qasa asks what it means to be British Bangladeshi in 2021? He talks to singer-songwriter Joy Crookes about her connection to her roots and hears from young Bengalis exploring their identity.

Also our reporter, Rahila Bano, catches up with Bangladeshis in Oldham. It’s one of the largest communities outside of London.

And we’ll also be joined by rapper , Hyphen, who has started doing talks at schools about his battle with depression.
