The BNP observed 7 November as National Revolution and Solidarity Day with the party leaders and activists, led by Mirza Fakhrul, placing wreaths and offering fateha at the grave of their party founder and former president Ziaur Rahman in the city.
On 7 November 1975, amid the political turmoil, soldiers and civilians jointly freed the then Chief of Army Staff Ziaur Rahman from captivity in Dhaka Cantonment, paving the way for him to come to power.
