Ramisa Maliha Bhuiyan

  Eid- ul -fitr is a celebration that is carried out on a grand scale every year.

Youth show Eid kindness to disadvantaged kids

      ------ Sir Frank Peters ----

A revolution to create a better Bangladesh has begun. It’s taking root at grass level in a small village near Gazipur.

By Ali Riaz
