As part of the Children’s Day programmes, the President will pay tribute to the Father of the Nation by placing a wreath at his mazar (mausoleum) at Tungipara at 10 am.
A smartly turned-out contingent drawn from Bangladesh Army, Navy and Air Force will also give a guard of honour to the President on the occasion.
He will offer Fateha there seeking eternal peace of the departed soul of Bangabandhu and other family members who were brutally killed by a group of disgruntled army personnel on the fateful night of August 15 in 1975.
President Hamid is scheduled to sign the visitor's book kept on the mazar premises.
On his arrival there, President Abdul Hamid will be received by Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina and senior politicians, President Press Secretary Joynal Abedin told UNB today.
