The Ministry of Liberation Affairs has invited fresh applications from individuals who were injured during the July mass uprising but whose names were not included in the official government gazette as 'July fighters'. A public notice to this effect was issued on Tuesday by the ministry's July Mass Uprising branch.
Application Requirements
According to the notice, individuals who were injured while participating in the student-public movement during the July mass uprising, or who are still undergoing treatment, but were not gazetted as 'July fighters', are eligible to apply for inclusion. Applicants must submit their National ID card or birth certificate, permanent and current addresses, and appropriate evidence supporting their injury.Where to Submit Applications
Per the notice, injured individuals can submit their applications at the office of the Upazila Executive Officer (UNO), the Deputy Commissioner's (DC) office, or other relevant offices. This initiative marks the beginning of a process to grant official recognition to those injured who remained outside the gazette, according to sources.The ministry has not yet disclosed how many 'July fighters' have been included in the official gazette so far, nor how many may be added following the new applications. However, this application process is expected to play a crucial role in finalizing the list of injured individuals.
