Barefooted, 20 exuberant youths, all clad in yellow dresses typical of that donned by Himu, an eccentric character created by late litterateur Humayun Ahmed, yesterday brought out a procession to pay tribute to the legendary writer. Published in a series, the stories on Himu have an overwhelming influence on the country's young generation for his unconventional behaviour and careless attitude towards life. Expressing grief at the untimely demise of the writer, the youths paraded the streets from Dhanmondi 3/A to Jatiya Press Club in the capital. The procession was organised by Nivrito Foundation.
