AGP Executive Report

Last update: 12 hours ago

Eid-ul-Azha Across Bangladesh: Bangladesh will mark Eid-ul-Azha on Thursday with prayers at Eidgahs and mosques, sermons on Qurbani, and Eid greetings nationwide; the main Dhaka congregation is set for the National Eidgah with heightened security. Measles Emergency: Bangladesh’s measles outbreak is worsening fast—health authorities report death tolls crossing 500, with suspected cases surging past 60,000 and hospitals under strain; a nationwide emergency vaccination push is underway and Eid leave for frontline staff has been cancelled. Hospital Response: United Medical College Hospital has launched a dedicated measles management system, including an isolation wing, strict infection control, and subsidised care for children, with early discharges reported. Public Health Accountability: The health minister says strict action will follow the deaths of six newborns at Ad-Din Medical College Hospital, citing possible technical and oxygen-related failures, with an investigation committee formed. Viral Eid Animal Story: Bangladesh’s “Donald Trump” albino buffalo has been spared from Eid sacrifice at the last moment and moved to the National Zoo after a Home Ministry order, with quarantine and a caregiver arranged. City Life & Culture: DSCC has revived designated sacrifice spots in Dhaka South to cut waste and pollution, though residents question whether people will shift from home-based Qurbani. Cross-Border Human Stories: Reports from India’s border region describe fear and movement of undocumented migrants amid “detect, delete and deport” policies, with families gathering to return to Bangladesh.
