Baatighar turns 18
Baatighar, a bookstore chain and a publisher, has celebrated its 17th founding anniversary, amid fanfare and festivity.
The publication house held a two-day programme on Friday and Saturday from 11:00am to 9:00pm, said a press release.
On the occasion, Chattogram, Dhaka and Sylhet Baatighar welcomed readers, writers and well-wishers.
On June 17, 2005, Baatighar started its journey in a small house at the corner of Cheragi hill in the port city. At present, there are large scale branches in Chattogram, Dhaka and Sylhet, and small-scale ones in Dhaka's Shahbagh and Banglabazar.
Work is underway to set up a large scale Baatighar at Ghoramara, Rajshahi. The online Baatighar -- baatighar.com -- sends books anywhere in the country and abroad.
Baatighar debuted as a publishing house in 2009. It has already published about 300 books.
