Dhaka: Activists and NGOs in Bangladesh raised serious concerns on human rights violations in China, Pakistan, and other parts of the world on International Human Rights Day.

Bangladesh Social Activists Forum organised a "horse carts rally" to protest against human rights violations throughout the world, especially to highlight the condition of Uyghurs in China and people in Pakistan's Balochistan, reports ANI.

The horse cart rally moved around Dhaka to spread awareness and highlight the significance of World Human Rights Day.

The carts moved around from National Press Club to Dhaka University, Shahbagh, Karwan Bazar, Banglamator, Magbazar, Kakrail, Vijaynagar and Paltan in front of the DMP Commissioner's Office, and distributed pamphlets to raise awareness, the Indian news agency reported.

Meanwhile, Bharat Bangladesh Sampreeti Sangsad (BBSS) Welfare Association organised a cycle rally to mark the occasion where media workers, leaders of various organizations, students from schools, colleges and universities were present, ANI reported.

December 10 is commemorated as International Human Rights Days every year in remembrance of the United Nations General Assembly's adoption and proclamation of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) in 1948 that enshrines the rights and freedoms of all human beings.
