During the programme, Ibrahim and Aemil exchanged greetings with the journalists and staff members and conveyed their best wishes on the newspaper’s anniversary.

Bangladesh Pratidin began its journey on 15 March 2010. Marking the milestone of entering its 17th year, the newspaper expressed gratitude to its readers, advertisers, newspaper agents, hawkers and well-wishers for their continued support.

Since its inception, the daily has maintained a reputation for practicing objective journalism and for its commitment to truth and credibility. It has repeatedly been recognised in the National Parliament as the country’s top daily in terms of circulation.

Alongside its print edition, the newspaper’s online version has also gained significant popularity among Bengali-speaking readers worldwide. In addition to the Bangla edition, the publication also operates an English version.

The Bangladesh Pratidin Multimedia platform has recently expanded its activities and is rapidly gaining popularity by producing video content on current affairs, entertainment, sports and other topics.
