Dhaka, Aug. 5 -- Dhaka University on Tuesday observed the first anniversary of the historic July Uprising with a series of events to honour people who sacrificed their lives during last year's movement that toppled the Awami League government.

The DU administration, teachers, and student groups organised the events.

Pro-BNP teachers' platform 'Sada Dal' held a rally commemorating the fall of 'fascist Awami rule' and the flight of Sheikh Hasina.

Beginning at 12:45pm from the base of the Aparajeyo Bangla sculpture, the rally moved through Raju Sculpture and ended near the VC Chattar.

Before the rally, the participants observed a one-minute silence in memory of those killed during the July movement and the Milestone School tragedy.
