The government has rearranged the office timing for the upcoming holy month of Ramzan from 9 am to 3:30 pm for all government, semi-government, autonomous and semi-autonomous institutions.
The decision was taken on Monday at the weekly cabinet meeting held with Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina in the chair at the Prime Minister’s Office, reports UNB.
“During the Ramzan, 9:00am to 3:30pm has been fixed as the office time from Sunday to Thursday,” said cabinet secretary Khandker Anwarul Islam told reporters at the Secretariat.
He said there’ll be a 15-minute break from 1:15 to 1:30pm for Zahr prayer.
