The Ministry of Public Administration issued the instructions on the issue on Tuesday (30 July). Government offices will return to their usual working hours after 12 days on Wednesday as the curfew imposed amid the violence surrounding the quota reform protests eases.
Shibli Sadiq, a public relations officer at the ministry confirmed that matter.
That means public, semi-public, autonomous, and semi-autonomous institutions will be open from 9 am to 5 pm.
However, Bangladesh had imposed a curfew on Jul 19 amid violence and clashes in Dhaka and nationwide over the violence surrounding the quota reform movement.
Then, by executive order, the government declared public holidays from Jul 21–23 in two stages for public, private, semi-public, autonomous, and semi-autonomous offices.
