President M Abdul Hamid paid rich tributes to the martyrs of the 1971 Liberation War by placing wreaths at the National Mausoleum in Savar on Friday (16 December) morning marking the 52nd Victory Day.
He placed the wreaths at the altar of the Mausoleum followed by Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, reports BSS.
After placing the wreaths, the President stood in solemn silence for a while as a mark of deep respect to the memories of the martyrs of the 1971 Liberation War.
A smartly turned out contingent drawn from the Bangladesh Army, Navy and Air Force presented the state salute on the occasion, as the bugles played the last post.
The President also signed the visitors' book kept on memorial premises.
