Rains of relief in the capital, suffering on the Eid journey


It was not hot in the capital. Finally Dhaka got wet with relief rain. Meanwhile, today was the last working day before the holy Eid-ul-Azha. So the people who return home around Eid-ul-Azha are suffering.

On Thursday (June 13), heavy traffic jams were seen in various areas of the capital due to rain.

It suddenly got dark in the afternoon and it started raining in the capital. Many people get wet due to lack of advance preparation. Due to the rain, many people are unable to go to the bus terminal again. Many have come to the terminal with great difficulty and are taking position under the canopy.

Meanwhile, Jalil Khan will go to Barisal to celebrate Eid with his family. He said, I got Eid leave from today. I came saying there was no rain but I could not get the car because of the rain. Everything is changing.

Due to rain, the movement of people is being disrupted due to mud and water in the bus terminals. Many people are trying to cover their bags in different ways so that they don't get wet. In the rain, many people's efforts are going to fail.

After visiting the Sayedabad, Kamalapur, Jatrabari, Dholaipar areas of the capital, it was seen that after the last working day, the bus terminal was crowded with homebound passengers. Before the suffering of heavy traffic in the capital was over, the heavy rain suddenly fell. Instead of relief, passengers returning home on Eid are in trouble.

According to the official holiday list, Eid al-Adha holiday will start from the day before Eid i.e. June 16 (Sunday). Which will continue till June 18 (Tuesday). Before this, 14th and 15th June (Friday and Saturday) is a weekend. According to that, a total of five days leave is given to government officials and employees.
