Ekramul Haque Sajid

Born on March 1, 1999. His ancestral home is in Bil Kukri village, Dhanbari Thana, Bania Jan Union, Tangail District. Shaheed Sajid is the second of one son and one daughter of retired Air Force officer Ziaul Haque and Lipi Begum. A meritorious student, Shaheed Sajid passed SSC in 2016 from BAF Shaheen College, Dhaka, and HSC in 2018 from Adamjee Cantonment College. Later, he was admitted to the Department of Accounting and Information Management at Jagannath University.
Who Shaheed Sajid Was
Ekramul Haque Sajid (25), a meritorious student and postgraduate student of Jagannath University, used to support himself by tutoring. For a long time, he had a wish to invite all his relatives to his village home in Tangail and feed them with his own money. He had told this to his father Ziaul Haque. He had asked him to make a list of relatives. Ziaul Haque also made the list. Sajid wanted to come to the village after fixing the date. Today, almost all the relatives came to Sajid's village home. But not to eat the feast, they bid him farewell with tears in their eyes.
Background of Martyrdom
From the very beginning of the anti-discrimination student movement, Shaheed Sajid was active in the movement. On August 4, he joined the anti-discrimination student movement program and took position in the Mirpur 10 number Gol Chattar area of Dhaka. At around half past four in the afternoon, when the police, RAB, and BGB fired heavily with sniper rifles at the program, Sajid was shot. The bullet hit the back of his head and came out through his right eye. After being taken to the Combined Military Hospital (CMH) in Dhaka in critical condition, he underwent surgery that night. Then, even after 10 days, he did not regain consciousness. On Wednesday, August 14, at 2:30 pm, he answered the call of his Lord and ended his short life's journey in this world. After the funeral at Dhaka CMH and the Central Shaheed Minar, his body was buried in his village home.
Comments about the Martyr
Sajid's uncle Abdur Razzak said, "Sajid wanted to invite all of us to the village and feed us. He came to the village, and we also came to their house. But not to eat the feast, but to bid him farewell forever."
Professor Dr. Shamsun Nahar, Chairman of the Department of Accounting and Information Management, said, “Sajid was my direct student. He was also very active in class. It was predictable that he would lead from the front in building a new Bangladesh. If Sajid were alive today, he would have come to take the exam. So, keeping him in mind, this initiative has been taken with the students. Our department will remember Sajid forever.”
Sajid's classmates said, "Sajid gave his life for the country. This is a matter of pride for our department. In memory of Sajid, we have placed flowers and a flag on his seat today. But we want something to be done for Sajid by the university. Our new academic building has been named after Sajid by the general students. We want the university administration to do this naming through the university process, so that no one can erase this name."
