Photo exhibition to present integration between communities in Bangladesh

Ekotar Bangladesh, an organisation that works for increasing inter-communal harmony and political issues, will arrange a photo exhibition to present integration and unity among the communities in Bangladesh.

The two-day long programme named 'Ekotar Aloy Bangladesh' will be inaugurated at the Bishwo Shahitto Kendro at 3pm on Sunday (8 September).

The organisers arranged a press conference at the office room of Dhaka University Journalist Association today (6 September) around 5pm.

Plabon Tarique, the convener of the Ekotar Bangladesh, said, "This is a platform working with the conviction to build an egalitarian and humane state, transcending all religions, castes and ideologies, in the new Bangladesh created after the July Revolution."

"All of us who are working here believe that our only identity is that we are citizens of Bangladesh. So, there is no room for differences here. We want to reflect this mindset through our programs. I am expressing the hope that the nation will see the reflection of the July revolution, communal harmony and an egalitarian and humane state rising above religion, caste and ideology in the photo exhibition on 8th and 9th," he added.

Tahmid Al Muddassir, the spokesperson of the organisation, said, "The main objective of 'Ekotar Bangladesh' is to draft a vision for an inclusive Bangladesh. With that goal in mind, 'Ekotar Bangladesh' is organising this special photo exhibition, which will portray the unity of people from all faiths and beliefs that defines the new Bangladesh."

Committee members of the organisation Ragib Anjum and Abrar Hossain were present on the occasion among others.
