DNCC's Public Relations Department Information Officer Peal Hasan told that 10 haats including one permanent haat will be set up in the capital's DNCC area. 

This time, the cattle markets will remain open for 5 days from June 13 until the morning of Eid day, he said adding all arrangements have been made for the safe and comfortable trading of sacrificial animals.

One monitoring committee for each market has been formed for maintaining overall discipline at market areas, he said.
