Prime Minister Tarique Rahman returned to Dhaka early today (October 21, 2026) via Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport after completing a daylong tour on Maha Navami (Tuesday) to visit Durga Puja mandaps in Rangpur, Rajshahi, and Chattogram.
During his tour, he visited the historic Radha Gobinda Dharmasabha Temple in Rangpur, the Dharmasabha Temple in Rajshahi—where he handed over a Tk 10 lakh cheque to the temple authorities and digitally transferred Tk 12 crore in incentives to 38,970 sugarcane farmers—and the JM Sen Hall Puja mandap in Rahmatganj, Chattogram. He exchanged warm greetings with the Hindu community, interacted with devotees, and addressed public gatherings amid festive cultural performances.
He was accompanied on his return by senior government and party officials, including Home Minister Salahuddin Ahmed and BNP Acting Secretary General Ruhul Kabir Rizvi, as the nation celebrates Bijoya Dashami today.
