RE: Phulbari Massacre day that took place on the 26th August 200626 Aug 2025 20:58
The day is nationally known as Phulbari Day. People of Phulbari are still waiting for justice in Bangladesh.
Hundreds of people in Phulbari, Dinajpur, and Dhaka have honoured the dead by commemorating and rallying in Phulbari martyrs’ monument and at Dhaka Shahid Minar earlier today.
The organisers of the events have called upon Bangladesh government to oust GCM from Bangladesh and ban open cast coal mine.
We, Phulbari Solidarity Group and London Mining Network, stand in solidarity with the families of the victims and the protesters in Phulbari as ever. Echoing Phulbari protesters, we call on both the Bangladesh and the UK government to take immediate action to ban coal mining, take legal action against GCM Resources, demand justice for Phulbari people.
