Bengali Calendar 2020 with Govt. Holidays for Bangladesh.

On Monday, October 28, 2019 the cabinet of the Government of the People's Republic of Bangladesh approved public holidays for the upcoming year 2020. The cabinet meeting was chaired by Prime Minister, Sheikh Hasina at the Prime Minister’s Office on the aforesaid date. Like the prevailing year, the year 2020 will also comprise 22 (twenty two) days of public holidays. Out of total 22 days of holidays, 14 (fourteen) days will be observed as Ordinary Public Holidays while 8 (eight) days will be observed under Executive Order. But unfortunately, 8 (eight) days, out of the 22 holidays will be on the weekly holidays. However, in the previous year, 3 (three) days, out of the 22 holidays were on weekly holidays. Consequently, in the upcoming year the service holders will get 5 (five) days less holidays. The following table enumerates a complete list of Public Holidays in the year 2020:
