General Manager (Marketing) of BSCIC, Dhaka, Zahangir Alam, convener of Anti-Discrimination Student Movement, district unit, Masud Rana, president of Bangladesh Chhatra Dal Gaibandha Govt. College unit, Arshad Aiyub Jahid and a successful freelancer Sahadat Hossain Shahid addressed the function, among others.

Later, the guests went round the stalls inside the park for the visitors.
