Another Eid is nearing, and Dhaka dwellers are planning to leave the city and head home for the holiday. The country is celebrating Eid-ul-Fitr with a nine-day holiday – giving people the perfect opportunity to spend time with their near and dear ones outside the capital, at home, or at tourist destinations. People in Dhaka can move around with relative ease; however, holiday-makers are expected to face a difficult situation.

Eid holidaymakers opting to journey by train are suffering immensely as many trains were running hours late. Till 1:30pm, at least 28 trains have left Kamalapur Railway Station and of them six were late.
