PATUAKHALI, Feb 8, 2025 (BSS) - A three-day photo exhibition on the July 
Uprising organized by the district administration ended this evening in the 
Jhautola area of the district.

A total of 62 photos including the pictures of Abu Sayeed and Mugdha, who 
embraced martyrdom in the anti-discrimination student movement, and attacks 
of police and tortures of Chhatra League on the thousands of protesters were 
exhibited in the event at makeshift pendal. 

The exhibition also displayed the pictures of cheerful people following the 
collapse of the fascist government.

Besides, different documentaries on the July Uprising were screened during 
the exhibition.

Visiting the exhibition, students said upholding the spirit of the July 
Uprising, all should work together to build a new Bangladesh instead of being 
divided to serve anyone's interest.

The exhibition drew huge visitors from different ages on its second day on 
Friday and today.

Talking to BSS, Patuakhali Deputy Commission Abu Hasnat Mohammad Arefin said 
during the anti-fascist and anti-autocracy movement, mass killing was carried 
out by shutting down the internet across the country. 

Anti-state conspiracies are still going on, he said, adding this exhibition 
has been organized to counter those conspiracies.

According to official sources, 25 people were killed and 64 were injured 
during the anti-discrimination student movement in the district.
