Bangladesh marked 54 years of independence as people gathered in Savar to commemorate Victory Day, honouring those who fought in the country’s 1971 liberation war.
Ceremonies were held at the National Martyrs’ Memorial, where officials, political activists and members of the public paid tribute to fallen heroes. Victory Day, observed annually on December 16, marks the surrender of Pakistani forces and the birth of Bangladesh as an independent nation.
Alongside the commemorations, demonstrators and political groups renewed demands for free and fair elections, reflecting ongoing political tensions in the country. Calls for electoral reforms and transparent voting processes have remained a central issue in Bangladesh’s political landscape ahead of future polls.
