Offices, banks reopen after 10-day holiday

All government, semi-government offices, banks and financial institutions reopened on Sunday (June 15) after 10-day of Eid-ul-Azha holiday.

Many people are returning from their village homes to the capital even this morning to join office.

The second-largest religious festival for Muslims in Bangladesh, Eid-ul-Azha, was celebrated on June 7. June 4 marked the last working day for government officials and employees and also for bankers ahead of the holiday.

Before the Eid holidays began, the government offices and banks were kept open on two Saturdays — 17 May and 24 May
