This PR translates the Landing Page (content/en/_index.md) into Bengali (bn) as part of the initial localization effort

  • Only the Landing Page is translated, as per instructions.
  • Metadata (frontmatter) is preserved.
  • Links and structure are kept intact.
  • Translation follows the contribution and style guidelines.

Fixes: #6765
Please let me know if any further adjustments are needed.

The translation looks accurate and is aligned with the original content.

@chalin I don't think there is any issue with spelling. Some words might appear unfamiliar because technical terms have been written directly in Bangla, which I believe is completely normal. This approach is also used in the CNCF glossary and k8s Bengali docs. However, the system is also flagging commonly known Bangla words as unknown. Additionally, I’d appreciate some clarification regarding the file format.

To satisfy the spell checker we also need to add the language to https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry.io/blob/main/.cspell.yml, and do some other infrastructure changes. We (@open-telemetry/docs-maintainers) can manage that. Don't worry about the CI checks right now.

@debjotyms Thanks so much for your contribution—really appreciate your effort on this!

I’ve suggested a few minor changes. One small note: if we preserve the original English line breaks, it will help a lot when updating or syncing the Bengali localization with the source content. For example:

-  High-quality, ubiquitous, and portable telemetry to enable effective 
-  observability 
+  কার্যকর অবজারভেবিলিটির জন্য উচ্চ-মানের, সর্বজনীন ও পোর্টেবল টেলিমেট্রি প্রদান

Maintaining a similar line structure like this makes future maintenance easier:

+  কার্যকর অবজারভেবিলিটির জন্য উচ্চ-মানের, সর্বজনীন ও পোর্টেবল
+  টেলিমেট্রি প্রদান

It looks like the file has been localized under the wrong directory.
The correct directory should be in content/bn/ instead of content/en/ as discussed here.

Thank you so much @sajibAdhi for the review and helpful suggestions! I've applied the fixes, including moving the file to the correct directory and adjusting the line breaks as discussed. It should be all set now. Please have a look when you get a chance. Let me know if there’s anything else to improve!
