IFIC Bank observed National Mourning Day with due dignity and solemnity, said a press release.
National Mourning Day began with the lowering of the national flag in the early hours of August 15 (Tuesday). In the same sequence, the 'Remembrance Meeting and Duah Mohfil' was held at IFIC Tower Multipurpose Hall at 11am after a tree plantation programme was held on the IFIC tower premises.
All employees of the branches and sub-branches across the country participated through a virtual platform. At this time, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman's historic March 7 speech was played in a digital screen. The meeting concluded with a brief speech by Shah Alam Sarwar, Managing Director & Chief Executive of the bank.
As part of observing the same event, all employees of the bank are conducting black batch holding and tree-planting activities throughout the month. Earlier on August 14, the bank's Board of Directors in its 865th Board meeting organised a discussion to commemorate the day.
Besides, initiatives have been taken to deliver daily commodities to marginalised people in different areas under the 'Humanitarian Assistance Program' through branches of IFIC Bank.
