Recalling 1971 Genocide

Parchyanaat, a theatre group, organises a procession themed “Laal Jaatra” near TSC intersection at Dhaka University marking Genocide Day. The event symbolises the ghastly attempt of the Pakistan junta to subdue the spirit of a secular nation by unleashing an act of bloodbath by the Pakistan army on the defenceless Bangalees on the night of March 25 in 1971.
