Russian House in Dhaka jointly organized Soviet/Russian Graduates Day with the Soviet Alumni Association, Bangladesh (SAAB). Graduates from the erstwhile Soviet Union and present-day Russia attended the ceremony.

Pavel Dvoychenkov, director of Russian House in Dhaka (formerly the Russian Cultural Centre) gave a welcome speech. He wished and congratulated all the graduates who attended the event, recalling in his speech that since Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman's visit to the Soviet Union in 1972, many Bangladeshi students from Bangladesh went to the Soviet Union on government scholarships and later returned to Bangladesh and held high positions in the development activities of Bangladesh.

He also said that due to the interest of Bangladeshi students, the Russian government is increasing the number of education scholarships day by day. In the academic year 2023-2024 the number of scholarships was 110 and in the academic year 2024-2025 124 scholarships have been allocated. The Russian House in Dhaka is always active in this regard.

The Minister-Counsellor of the Russian Embassy in Bangladesh, Ekaterina Semenova, congratulated everyone on the occasion.

President of the Soviet Alumni Association, Bangladesh Taqsem Ahmed Khan thanked the Director of the Russian House in Dhaka for including them in various activities of the Russian House in Dhaka.

He gratefully recalled that the Soviet Alumni Association of Bangladesh was born in this Russian House in Dhaka, which was then the Soviet Cultural Center.

In the second part of the program the graduates performed Russian and Bengali songs and their kids performed dance. The joyous event was very enjoyable.
