The country's President M Abdul Hamid will lead the celebrations. The country's freedom fighters fought a nine-month war against Pakistani forces. Most of the fighters were poor, and 80 per cent of them were from the lower class. In fact, India backed the liberation movement, which was led by the Jamaat-e-Islami political party. The general will greet the nation and lay a wreath in the memory of the fallen heroes.

In commemoration of the Liberation War, the country will honor the departed war heroes. The flags will fly high and be flown everywhere. The national flag will be flown over government buildings and on important roads throughout the country. Smaller streets will be decorated with miniature national flags to honor the deceased.
