Two boats made by the Bangladesh Tourism Corporation floated on Lake Jatiya Sangsad on Thursday afternoon.
The red-green sail of the ship bears the logo of the centenary of Bangabandhu’s birth. The boat camp has various rural designs.
Ram Chandra Das, president of the tourism corporation, told bdnews24.com, “Around Tk 4 million have been spent to build these two beautiful boats.” The two boats are 26 feet long and five feet wide. “
He said the two ships were built under the supervision of Professor Anisuzzaman from the Institute of Fine Arts at Dhaka University. He designed it too. Later, the famous artist Hashem Khan did some addition and subtraction.
Ram Chandra said the two ships were built with the final approval of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina. “We have given it to the Secretariat of Parliament. They will take care of that now.”
A press release from the Secretary of Parliament reported on the ship’s floating ceremony.
Chief Whip Nur-e-Alam Chowdhury said: “Boat and Joy Bangla is a stronghold for Bengalis. Nauka and Joy Bangla’s motto is an inspiration for freedom and independence. The father of the nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman chose the ship as a symbol because at that time a large part of the country’s population depended on the ship for their livelihood. “
