Let Eid-ul-Azha be joyful for us!
The holy Eid-ul-Azha appears every year with the manifestation of the glory of sacrifice, attainment of nearness to the Almighty Allah, and the cause for heavenly prosperity. Returning to the roots, sharing joy with relatives in the ancestral house, the mutual interaction of souls – with all of these, the holy Eid turns into a joyous and colorful festival for the Bengali Muslim community.
The impact of the ongoing shrinking economy, rising commodity prices, the anticipated boom in the fourth wave of COVID-19, and the recently happened multifaceted impacts of the floods-have made many of us anxious enough to celebrate the upcoming Eid joyfully.
Happiness is unavoidable in life. May the ensuing Eid be a great occasion for uninterrupted happiness, heartfelt joy, and social congregation for all Muslims irrespective of class and profession, beyond the prevailing shock, quandary, and negativity.

Load-shedding again!
Load-shedding has become a casual affair again almost everywhere in our country. In urban and rural areas where electricity is available, modernity reached there. But today frequent power outage has been occurred due to lack of moderate generation. People are now accustomed to living with electricity, so distraction of electricity seems like a curse.
People are now suffering a lot due to power outages this summer.
If we all become more aware of the use of electricity, maybe then this problem can be solved. Moreover, everyone should come forward about solar power.
