The government has declared a 10-day holiday for Eid-ul-Azha, according to Press Secretary Shafiqur Alam. Following a cabinet decision, the extended break has been confirmed. Earlier, the Eid-ul-Fitr holidays spanned nine days, from March 28 to April 5. Government employees will be required to work on two Saturdays—May 17 and May 24—to accommodate the Eid break.
