The event is a collaborative effort with the IUB Journalism Club and the Division of Student Activities (DoSA) and focuses on the life stories of the Freedom Fighters, aiming to share their narratives of struggle and sacrifice with the younger generations, fostering a deeper understanding of the Liberation War.

The exhibition was inaugurated by a host of dignitaries including Freedom Fighter and IUB Board of Trustees (BoT) Chairman, Mr. Mr. Didar A Husain; Architect Nilufer Zafarullah, Chairman, ESTCDT; Dr. Husne Ara Ali, Member, BoT; and Tanweer Hasan, PhD, Vice Chancellor, IUB.

IPC President Rami Ahmed highlighted the exhibition’s significance, stating, “Swadhinatar Jolchobi is more than a photography exhibit.

It is a tribute to the indomitable spirit of Bangladesh’s Freedom Fighters and our nation’s journey towards independence. Through portraits and interviews, our members have meticulously documented these heroes’ lives and sacrifices.

We extend our gratitude to the IUB Journalism Club for their role in transforming these interviews into compelling narratives.”
