Bikoshito Nari Songho celebrates 10th founding anniversary
  Bangla Press Desk:  With the call that “building a peaceful future world requires men and women to work hand in hand, international women’s rights organisation, Bikoshito Nari Songho, celebrated its 10th anniversary in Paris on Sunday. The event, titled “We are Women; We Can,” was held at a community hall in La Courneuve, attended by members of the Bangladeshi diaspora from various walks of life. The discussion was chaired by Toufika Sahed, president of the organisation. Among others present were Dhaka Association convener Ahsanul Haque Bulu, adviser Sirajul Islam Mia, France-Bangladesh Journalists’ Association coordinator Mohammad Mahbub Hossain, spokesperson Mohammad Arif Ullah, France-Bangladesh Press Club President Ferdous Karim Akhunji, youth leader Milton Sarker, Paris Bangla Press Club President Enayet Sohel, MC Institute principal Prof Badrul Bin Harun, Euro Bangla Press Club president Taijul Islam, along with several journalists and cultural activists.
Speakers said women had no rights in the early ages and even being born a woman was considered a curse. Over centuries, women have gradually reclaimed their rightful place in society, and today they have proven their strength across the globe. They stressed that a successful state cannot be established unless men and women work together as equal partners. The event also recognised a number of expatriates and institutions for their contributions in different fields. Awardees included journalist Abu Mamun Azad (journalism), Ahsanul Haque Bulu (organising), Firoza Begum, Rubina Begum and Beauty Chowdhury (women entrepreneurship), artist Das and Jayita Barua (music), Prof Badrul Bin Harun (education), Shariful Islam (dance), Ami Voyage, NK Noyon and BCF (social service), Idni Muslim Uddi and Jolly Optics (business), Nusrat Clothes and Zahida Akter (online business), and Moushumi Chakraborty (music).
The anniversary programme concluded with a colourful cultural performance. This article was originally published on Daily Sun.
