Approximately 18,000 employees of DIRD Group were dressed in all black as a mark of respect for the language martyrs while also presenting a united front.

The celebrations included poetry recitations, cultural shows, and the hoisting of the national flag at half-mast.

The employees also paid tribute to the martyrs by laying floral wreaths at the Shaheed Minar, a monument built to commemorate the language movement of 1952, adds the release.

The employees of both factories expressed their pride in observing International Mother Language Day, saying, "As employees of a Bangladeshi company, we take great pride in our mother tongue, and it is our responsibility to celebrate it. DIRD Group has always been committed to ensuring a favorable environment for us, thus motivating us in preserving the language and culture of Bangladesh. We wish to continue to do so in the future."

The celebration of International Mother Language Day brought together employees from diverse linguistic backgrounds and fostered a sense of unity and pride.

DIRD Group remains dedicated to promoting the diversity and richness of Bangladesh's culture, and the company will continue to celebrate International Mother Language Day in the years to come.
