Shaheed Dr Milon Day was observed yesterday, commemorating the 25th martyrdom anniversary of Dr Shamsul Alam Khan Milon during the 90s’ anti-autocratic movement, reports UNB. Various socio-cultural and political organisations as well as professional bodies observed the day with various programmes. They placed wreaths at the grave of Shaheed Dr Milon on Dhaka Medical College campus, offered 'fateha' there and organised discussion meetings on the occasion. On this day in 1990, Dr Milon, the then joint secretary general of Bangladesh Medical Association (BMA), was shot dead by gunmen near TSC on the Dhaka University campus on his way to a meeting against the then autocratic ruler HM Ershad.
