Marking the day, national flag hoisted half-mast at all government, semi-government and autonomous offices, educational institutions and all government and non-government buildings and at all Bangladesh missions abroad.
Special doa will be offered at all mosques across the country while prayers will also be offered at places of worships for other religions, seeking eternal peace of the departed soul of Sheikh Khalifa, one of the world’s longest-serving prime ministers.
