During the great liberation war, Pakistani invaders, with the help of Razakars, captured and tortured freedom fighters, killed them and thrown their bodies in the jungle adjacent to the water-tank of the Tangail district headquarters. The slaughterhouse has long been under neglected.
So, slaughterhouse has been renovated and the monument has been constructed newly with the initiative of the Tangail District Administration.
