The Bangladesh Jatiyatabadi Chhatra Dal (JCD) has announced a month-long program to commemorate the July mass uprising. The initiative began at the Central Shaheed Minar in the early hours of July and will conclude on August 3 with a student rally at the same venue. BNP Chairperson and JCD’s organizational guardian Tarique Rahman will attend the concluding event as chief guest. The program was announced by JCD President Rakibul Islam Rakib and General Secretary Nasir Uddin Nasir through a press release signed by Office Secretary Md. Jahangir Alam.

According to the release, the program aims to honor the martyrs and injured of the July–August uprising, preserve its historical memory, recognize contributions of all participants, and promote national unity against fascism. Events include candle lighting and the national anthem at the Shaheed Minar, discussions at TSC, divisional student rallies, memorial meetings, art and poetry festivals, and prayers for the martyrs. JCD leaders will also visit graves of the martyrs and meet their families to deliver gifts on behalf of Tarique Rahman.

The month-long observance will culminate in a large student rally at the Central Shaheed Minar on August 3, marking the second anniversary of the movement’s victory.
