US Secretary of State John Kerry has greeted Bengalis around the world on the occasion of Pahela Boishakh, the first day of Bangla New Year.

On behalf of President Barack Obama and the people of the US, said in a statement on Friday: “The United States joins you in celebrating the vibrant history and culture of the Bengali-speaking people.”

“Your rich cultural heritage, from food and song to poetry, art, and literature has greatly enriched our own.”

“As you gather with family and friends to celebrate the New Year, know that the United States stands with you as a partner and friend. Shubho Nobo Borsho!” read the statement from the US embassy in Dhaka.

Bangladesh and Bengali-speaking people across the world are preparing to welcome the new Bengali year, 1421, on Monday.
