World’s biggest Bangladesh flag to be showcased on Victory Day
Some 8,000 volunteers solely from the armed forces took part in the practice session yesterday, the final countdown before the Victory Day.
Thousands of schoolchildren and general people, mostly youths and enthusiastic professionals, joined the rehearsal. The programme will start at 10am on the Victory Day with National Anthem to be sung by artiste Rezwana Chowdhury Bonnya. Around 12pm, volunteers mostly students from different academic institutions will form the human flag, following which Ayub Bachchu and Bappa Mazumder will perform at a concert at the National Parade Ground. The main objective of this attempt is not only to celebrate the Victory Day but also show the world the inner strength and unity of the people of Bangladesh. If the attempt is successful it will be recorded in the Guinness Book of World Records. Earlier on October 21, 2012, the largest national flag was created in Pakistan with 24,200 participants attending the Punjab Youth Festival at the National Hockey Stadium in Lahore, Pakistan. A Guinness-accredited auditor will be present to oversee the attempt in Bangladesh. After successful completion of the event all relevant documents and images will be sent to the Guinness World Record committee for validation.
Around 10,000 spectators can collect free tickets from any Robi Customer Care centre. Around 1,200 tickets will be available at the entrances of the venue on the Victory Day. Approximately 1,000 guests, celebrities, sportspersons, educationists, businesspersons and other noted individuals were being invited, said Ashikur Rahman, manager, Media Relations of Robi.
Members of the Bangladesh Navy, BGB, Police, Ansar and Ari Force will be deployed at the venue to strengthen security.
