7 March to independence

People came in numbers to the Salutikor killing ground in Sylhet yesterday, two days after it was opened as a memorial park, to pay respect to the martyrs who sacrificed their lives for the country’s independence. Over 200 freedom fighters were killed at this ground, which remained inaccessible to people until now. Photo: Debashish Debu
