(noun)
Historical Context: A term from the Bangladesh Liberation War of 1971, originally referring to individuals who collaborated with the Pakistani military against the independence movement. Rajakars were often involved in atrocities and war crimes against the Bangladeshi population.
Modern Usage (Ironical): In contemporary Bangladesh, "Rajakar" is now used ironically by individuals (especially students) who are shamelessly labelled as Rajakars by the government for demanding their rights as citizens and protesting against unethical quota systems in public services. It signifies a form of resistance and defiance against unjust accusations by authorities.
