BUP Observes ‘Martyred Intellectuals Day-2020’
Dhaka,
14 December 2020: Bangladesh University of Professionals (BUP) observed
‘Martyred Intellectuals Day 2020’ virtually with due dignity and solemnity. High
officials, teachers and students of BUP joined in the programme organized by
the Department of English under Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences, BUP.
The
speakers said on the occasion that sensing an imminent defeat the Pakistani
forces committed the cold-blooded mass murders aiming to annihilate the
country's intelligentsia and cripple the emerging Bangladesh intellectually.
They dragged out academicians, doctors, engineers, journalists, artists,
teachers and other eminent personalities of their homes and brutally tortured
and killed. The speaker stated that we remember the deep sorrow and express our
sympathy and gratitude to the relatives of all the martyred intellectual
families. The speakers called upon everyone to keep their great sacrifice in
heart and to play a role in the development and progress of the country from
their respective positions in building the desired intellectual Bangladesh
under the visionary leadership of Hon’ble Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina.
