Chief Adviser Dr. Muhammad Yunus paid homage to the martyrs of Bangladesh’s 1971 Liberation War at the National Martyrs’ Memorial in Savar on Tuesday morning, marking the 54th Victory Day. He placed floral wreaths in honor of those who sacrificed their lives for the country’s independence and stood in solemn silence to show respect.

A smartly turned-out contingent comprising members of the Bangladesh Army, Navy, and Air Force presented a state salute, accompanied by the mournful sound of the bugle. Following the tribute, Professor Yunus exchanged greetings with members of the Advisory Council, senior military officials, freedom fighters, and relatives of the martyrs. Earlier in the morning, President Mohammed Shahabuddin also paid his respects by laying wreaths at the memorial.

The Victory Day ceremonies highlight national unity and remembrance, reaffirming Bangladesh’s commitment to the ideals of independence and freedom. The day was observed across the country with patriotic fervor and tributes to the nation’s heroes.
