The BNP has announced a two-day programme to mark Independence and National Day. After the president and prime minister pay tribute at the National Martyrs’ Memorial in Savar, BNP leaders will place wreaths there on behalf of the party. Speaking about the programme, BNP Senior Joint Secretary General Ruhul Kabir Rizvi said Independence and National Day marks one of Bangladesh's most important achievements, giving the country a distinct identity on the world map and before the international community. Rizvi noted that the BNP had already published a poster marking Independence Day and would also bring out special supplements in several national dailies on Mar 26. He added that, alongside the central programme, BNP units in districts and municipalities would organise discussion meetings and other events to mark the day, while affiliated and associate bodies would also take their own initiatives.
