Awami League's 75th founding anniversary: PM pays homage to Bangabandhu

Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina on Sunday (Jun 23 ) paid glowing tributes to Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman marking the 75th founding anniversary of the ruling Bangladesh Awami League. She paid homage to Bangabandhu by placing a wreath at the portrait of the Father of the Nation at Bangabandhu Memorial Museum on Dhanmondi-32 at 7 in the morning, local media reported.

After laying the wreath, the PM stood in solemn silence for some times as a mark of profound respect to the memory of Bangabandhu. Later, flanked by senior party leaders, Sheikh Hasina, also president of the Awami League, paid tributes to Bangabandhu by placing another wreath at the portrait of the Father of the Nation on behalf of her party.

Bangladesh Awami League was formed on this day in 1949, which later emerged as the biggest political party in the country to lead struggles for freedom, the War of Liberation and all democratic movements.
