The Bangladesh Parliament session was suspended for 40 minutes on Sunday, April 5, 2026, after a technical fault disrupted the sound system. Speaker Hafiz Uddin Ahmed made the decision when the issue prevented members from hearing speeches during the session. The problem arose shortly after two bills were passed following the afternoon prayer break. Chief Whip Nurul Islam Moni began addressing the presence of a group of July fighters in the VIP gallery, but his remarks could not be heard properly.

Prime Minister Tarique Rahman and ruling party members welcomed the July fighters by tapping on their desks, but opposition members were unable to participate effectively due to the malfunction. The Speaker noted that his own microphone was not working and that he could not hear the proceedings. He then adjourned the session at 5:55 p.m. for 40 minutes, allocating 20 minutes for the Maghrib prayer and another 20 minutes to fix the sound system.

The session was expected to resume once the technical issue was resolved and the prayer break concluded.
