Birth anniversary of Jahanara Imam today

The 82nd birth anniversary of Shaheed Janani Jahanara Imam will be observed today across the country in a befitting manner.

On the occasion, Ekatturer Ghatak Dalal Nirmul Committee will place wreaths at her grave at Mirpur Intellectual Graveyard.

Jahanara Imam, a prominent writer and mother of freedom fighter Rumi, was born in an aristocratic family in Murshidabad on May 3 in 1929.

Under her leadership, Ekatturer Ghatak Dalal Nirmul Committee was formed on 19 January in 1992.

Strong civil movement demanding trial of war criminals and amendment to the constitution in line with the spirit of liberation war began after the formation of the committee.

Owing to unavoidable reasons, discussion of the central Nirmul committee will be held on May 12, 2011 at 4:00pm at BILIA auditorium at Dhanmondi.
