Professor Muhammad Yunus kicked off a massive month-long celebration to honor the July Uprising that changed Bangladesh forever. The chief adviser wants people across the country to remember the brave fighters who died battling against dictatorship. He plans to make this an annual event that will help citizens spot warning signs of tyranny before it takes root again. Yunus believes the nation needs to stick together during these tough times ahead. The government will use this commemoration period to rebuild unity among all Bangladeshi people.
Religious leaders from mosques, temples, and churches will hold special prayers starting July 1st for those who lost their lives. Citizens can sign petitions demanding justice for the victims of government violence during the uprising. Students will receive scholarships named after the fallen heroes of the movement.

Theater groups will perform plays about the uprising on small stages around the country. Book fairs will showcase stories about the historic movement that toppled the old regime. Every district will build memorial monuments honoring local martyrs who gave their lives for freedom.
