Kishoreganj: All necessary preparations have almost completed to hold the country’s largest Eid congregation at Sholakia Eidgah in Kishoreganj like previous years as Eid-ul-Azha will be celebrated in the country on Tuesday.

Maulana Farid Uddin Masud, chairman of Islahul Muslimin Parishad, is expected to lead the Eid congregation to be held at 9:00am.

Visiting the Eidgah on Sunday, the UNB correspondent found workers cleaning the venue while all other arrangements, including water supply for ablution and installation of electric line, were completed.

Following the terrorist attack on the day of Eid-ul-Fitr on 7 July last, a three-tier security arraignment will be in place around the Eidgah this year to ensure security of devotees.

Anwar Hossain Khan, superintendent of Kishoreganj Police, said the devotees will have to enter the Eidgah after going through three steps.

He said closed-circuit cameras were installed in and around the venue while archways at different entrances to ensure foolproof security.

‘We hope the devotees will be able to offer Eid prayers safely,’ he said.

Besides, two special trains will operate on Bhairab-Kishoreganj and Kishoreganj-Mymensingh routes to facilitate the movement of Sholakia-bound Muslim devotees.

Azimuddin Biswas, president of Sholakia Eidgah Managing Committee and deputy commissioner of the district, said, ‘We’ve taken all preparations for the 189th Eid congregation giving importance to security. Police, RAB and BGB members will be deployed in the Eidgah.’

At least four people, including two police members, were killed and 10-15 others injured in a bomb explosion followed by a volley of gunfire near the country’s largest Eid congregation at Sholakia Eidgah in Sadar upazila on 7 July.
