Bangladesh Telecommunication Regulatory Commission (BTRC) on Sunday evening evening sent a letter to all mobile phone operators and telecom service providers in the country, asking them to suspend the three popular services immediately.

Earlier on Thursday, the government unblocked Facebook after banning 22days, but the ban on WhatsApp and Viber remains in place.
