To begin, Shahriar Islam Shovon, President of UAPLPC, delivered a welcoming speech in which he said that because to the corona situation, the University Campus remains closed, which is why we are unable to accommodate them on the UAP Campus. This is our honest effort to make them feel special, despite the difficult circumstances. UAPLPC is one of the most prominent clubs at the University of Asia Pacific, ranking among the other clubs. UAPLPC began its journey in 2019 with the goal/mission of establishing a photographer’s community inside the Department of Law and Human Rights. This club has organised a number of workshops, a photo contest and exhibition, an inter-semester photo contest, and an inter-department photo exhibition in such a short period of time that, even during this lockdown, this club is securely insuring all club operations through online. Each Friday, they broadcast a live session dubbed “Friday Photo Adda” to help students recover from mental weariness.

At the conclusion of the event, Shahriar Islam Shovon, President of UAPLPC expressed gratitude for everyone’s involvement and welcomed all new students to both the Department of Law and Human Rights and UAPLPC.
