A 15-day photography exhibition documenting the participation of Bangladeshi activists in the Freedom Flotilla Coalition opened at DrikPath Bhobon in the capital's Panthapath on Friday.

The essence of the events Bangladesh witnessed during the student-led mass uprising in July and August, which escalated into a bloodied revolution, ultimately toppling the regime of former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina and giving rise to what we now call a new Bangladesh, is truly inexplicable.

The exhibition of the second edition of the annual Bangladesh Press Photo Contest closed its curtains yesterday.
