The government has decided to further relax the ongoing curfew for 13 hours for the next four days.

The curfew will be relaxed in Dhaka, Narayanganj, Gazipur, and Narsingdi from 7am to 8pm from Wednesday to Saturday.

Home Minister Asaduzzaman Khan made the announcement after a meeting at the Secretariat on Tuesday evening.

However, local administration will decide about relaxation of the curfew in other districts.

The government imposed a curfew from 12am on July 19 to 10am on July 21 amid violence centring the quota reform movement. Later, the curfew was extended in phases, with certain hours being eased.
