The renovation work of historic Laldighi Maidan is going on in full swing with 95 percent of the work already completed.
The renovation project is themed after the historic movements of the country including anti-British movement, language movement, six-point movement, mass uprising of 1969 and the Liberation War of 1971, said sources in the project.
The Education Engineering Department (EED) has been implementing the Tk four crore project that began in February last year.
Although the ground is known as Laldighi Maidan, it is officially the field of Government Muslim High School, Chattogram.
