NATION HONOURS MARTYRS of the LIBERATION WAR: The nation marked its 56th Independence and National Day with solemn yet vibrant tributes to the Liberation War martyrs, as President Mohammed Shahabuddin and Prime Minister Tarique Rahman placed wreaths at the National Memorial in Savar yesterday. Throughout the day, people from all walks of life -- including students and persons with disabilities -- along with political, social, and cultural organisations, arrived with flowers to honour the fallen. Leaders from various parties, including Jamaat-e-Islami and CPB, also paid their respects. Photo: Palash Khan, PID
