‘Diplomatic efforts are on to get support from several countries in this regard,’ Mozammel said while addressing a press conference at the secretariat, reports UNB.
A photography exhibition will be organised at Suhrawardy Udyan titled ‘Bloody 25th March: Mass Killing History’ marking the day.
Besides, cultural and discussion programmes on the Liberation War will be held at every district and upazila.
On March 11, Parliament unanimously adopted a resolution to observe March 25 as Mass Killing Day.
