Stride for the Oxford of the East: Honoring 105 Years of Glory! 🏛️🏃‍♂️

For over a century, the University of Dhaka has been more than just an institution. It stands as the heartbeat of our national identity. From its foundation in 1921 to its recognition as the "Oxford of the East," this historic institution has shaped Bangladesh's destiny.

From the courageous voices of the Language Movement to the historic struggle for Independence in 1971 and the recent leadership in the July Revolution of 2024, the students of DU have always stood at the forefront of our freedom. Their spirit symbolizes our national strength.

This 1st July, on Dhaka University Day, we invite the entire nation—alumni, students, and patriots worldwide—to unite as one. Join this virtual tribute to honor the indomitable spirit of student power initiated by the DU-centered running organization, Bangladeshi Marathon Enthusiasts (BME). Whether in the streets of Dhaka or far across the sea, let’s run for the legacy that defines us all! 🇧🇩🏆
