The Press Club of India will soon have a media centre named after Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, founder of Bangladesh, reports The Hindu.
The initiative coincides with the ‘Mujib Barsho’, the birth centenary celebrations of Bangabandhu, currently underway in Bangladesh and India.
The Bangabandhu Media Centre, equipped with digital facilities and an exhibition hall, will be set up at the first floor of the Press Club building on Raisina Road in Indian capital New Dehli.
The facility is likely to be inaugurated by the Information and Broadcasting Minister of Bangladesh Dr. Hasan Mahmud, who will be visiting Delhi during September 5-8.
Earlier, the Bangladesh government, in view of the pandemic, had extended the Mujib Barsho events from March26, 2021 to December 16, 2021.
