BSS, Rajshahi :
Implementation work of the “Upazila Freedom Fighters (FF) Complex Construction Project” is now on the final stage throughout the country successfully as recognition to supreme sacrifice of the great sons of the soil to the nation.
Local Government Engineering Department (LGED) has been implementing the three-year project since July 2012 with an estimated cost of around Taka 1,078 crore with a view to uphold the spirit of the Liberation War, educate the new generation and promote welfare activities of the freedom fighters.
Project Director Engineer Mujibul Haque Somaji told BSS here that
requisite physical infrastructures were developed for the Upazila level freedom fighters and their family members for the first time.
In preliminary stage, a three-storey building on five-storey foundation was constructed at each of the 422 upazilas in all 64 districts in phases.Basically, the complex buildings were constructed on government vacant land.But the project had scope of land acquisition in limited scale.
The initiative has been taken to inspire people with patriotism through highlighting the spirit of the Great War of liberation. In all respects, the complex will supplement uplifting overall scenario of the Upazila towns coupled with elevating civic life.
The present government has already taken worthy actions in order to ensure the welfare of the freedom fighters and involve them in various nation building activities.
Although Muktijoddhas Sangsad Office exists in all upazilas, most of them have little or limited facilities with dilapidated condition. On the other hand at the upazila level currently no museum is available through which the new generation could have the opportunity to learn the true history of liberation war.
Narrating the salient features of the complex Engineer Somaji said works on 422 complexes are on the final stage at present which is expected to complete by this yearend.
Each of the complex floors have 2,500 square-feet space and the first and second floors will be used commercially while the third floor as office of the Freedom Fighters Sangsad and conference hall.
