The Ziaur Rahman Foundation will stand by the families of martyrs and injured individuals from the July Revolution, providing them with Eid essentials.

The initiative will begin on March 18, the foundation’s Executive Director, Professor Dr. Farhad Halim Doner, announced at a press conference at the National Press Club’s Abdus Salam Hall on Sunday.

Responding to a question from journalists, he said the foundation is collecting information on 850 families based on the government’s list of those affected. These families will receive Eid essentials.

He paid tribute to the student protesters who sacrificed their lives in the July-August Revolution, which led to the end of Sheikh Hasina’s rule. 

He also expressed solidarity with those still receiving treatment for injuries.

The foundation's medical team has been continuously working to ensure proper treatment for the injured and will continue to support them in the future, he added.
