Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina today reiterated her call to everyone to be vigilant against distortion of the victory of the War of Liberation, saying the people of Bangladesh, motivated by the spirit of the War of Liberation, will continue to pull the country forward in the future.
“The painting of an artist can be understood with the heart and simultaneously one can be motivated by being imbued with patriotism and a spirit of consciousness is awakened,” she said.
“The spirit of the great War of Liberation is very important for us, as people of Bangladesh will get awakened with that spirit, and they will pull the country forward further in the future with the ideals of the Liberation War,” she added.
The Premier made these remarks while addressing the inauguration ceremony of a special art exhibition titled “1973-2023 Retrospective” with the selected paintings of Independence Award-winning and internationally-acclaimed artist and valiant freedom fighter Shahabuddin Ahmed at Bangladesh National Museum in the city’s Shahbagh.
Some 140 selected artworks painted by internationally renowned Bangladeshi painter Shahabuddin Ahmed are being displayed in the month-long exhibition.
Bangabandhu’s youngest daughter, Sheikh Rehana, was present at the inaugural ceremony.
Terming the exhibition of Shahabuddin Ahmed’s paintings as very significant, Sheikh Hasina said that it is highlighting the nature of Bangladesh, the state of the country’s people, and the spirit of the War of Liberation in front of the people, especially the youths of Bangladesh.বিস্তারিত
