The Ministry of Liberation War Affairs has extended until October 7, 2026 the deadline for submitting applications for fresh gazette enlistment as Bir Muktijoddha (Valiant Freedom Fighter).

According to a gazette notification issued by the ministry on Thursday, relevant persons have been urged to submit their applications within the extended deadline.

The notification made it clear that no new applications will be accepted after October 7.
A memorandum issued by the ministry’s Gazette Branch requested its Information and Communication Technology (ICT) Branch to take necessary measures to publish the public notice on the ministry’s website.

Under Secretary Haridas Thakur signed the memorandum.
The ministry said applications for enlistment as Bir Muktijoddha had previously been received at various times and verification activities had also been conducted.

Gazette enlistment is completed through the prescribed process after verification of an applicant’s role during the Liberation War, relevant documents and other information, it said.

The ministry said there are provisions for verifying applications through the National Freedom Fighters Council and the relevant administrative structure.

The latest extension gives eligible applicants additional time to submit their applications before the process closes on October 7.
