Adviser Md Nahid Islam on Tuesday said a grant of TK 100 crore has been
given from the Chief Adviser (CA)’s Relief and Welfare Fund to the 'July
Shaheed Smriti Foundation', formed for the rehabilitation and medical
assistance of the victims of the July Uprising.
Nahid, also Information and Broadcasting Adviser, said this
while addressing a name-plaque unveiling ceremony of Shaheed Golam Nafiz Bhaban
at Banani Bidyaniketan School and College in the capital.
Nahid Islam said that the seriously injured people of the
July uprising will be sent abroad for better treatment.
Besides, those who have lost their eyesight will be treated
by bringing specialist doctors from abroad so that they can regain their
eyesight as soon as possible, he added.
The adviser said: "We got new Bangladesh through the
sacrifice of martyrs like Nafiz."
Those martyrs who sacrificed their lives in July are the
architects of July Uprising, he said.
The adviser said students from schools, colleges,
universities and madrasahs along with the general public participated in the
movement.
He said this upsurge is not because of any particular party
or group rather it belongs to all the people of the country.
Noting that martyrs do not belong to any group, he said all
should take forward the country by recalling their memories.
Shaheed Golam Nafiz's father Md Golam Rahman, Acting
Divisional Commissioner of Dhaka Mohammad Mominur Rahman, Snigdho, brother of
Shaheed Mugdho and teachers and students of the respective school and colleges
were also present on the occasion.
