Like previous years, the Prime Minister sent flowers, fruits and sweetmeats to the freedom fighters at Martyred and War-wounded Freedom Fighters’ Rehabilitation Centre (Muktijoddha Tower-1) on Gaznavi Road at Mohammadpur in the city as a mark of her good wishes for them.
Officials of the Prime Minister’s Office, led by PM’s Protocol Officer-1 SM Khurshid-ul-Alam, Deputy Press Secretary Hasan Zahid Tusher, Assistant Private Secretary (APS) Gazi Hafizur Rahman Liku, Protocol Officer-2 Abu Zafar Razu and Assistant Press Secretary MM Emrul Kayas, handed over these items to the FFs.
The freedom fighters thanked and expressed their gratitude to the Prime Minister for remembering them on every national day and festival like the Independence Day, Victory Day, Eid and Pahela Baishakh.
They also wished Sheikh Hasina good health and a long life.
The nation celebrated the 49th Victory Day on Monday marking the most precious day when the country was liberated from the Pakistani occupation forces after a nine-month-long War of Liberation.
