“We’ve already issued a circular in this connection and asked the managing directors and chief executive officers of all scheduled banks and asked them to keep sufficient money in their ATM booths so that their clients can withdraw money from the booths between July 28 and July 30,” a senior official of the Bangladesh Bank (BB) told BBN in Dhaka.

The scheduled banks along with the government offices will remain closed from July 28 to July 30 on the occasion of Eid-ul-Fitr, a religious festival for Muslims.
