Gearing up for the Ekushey book fair
Suhrawardy Udyan abuzz with activities; pandemic precautions also in place
Workers are putting in last bits of work to construct the vibrant stalls and pavilions of this year’s Amar Ekushey Book Fair, which will welcome avid readers from tomorrow for nearly a month.
