Cabinet Secretary Khandker Anwarul Islam on Sunday said that directive has been given once again about office timings.
“According to the new timing, all government officials have to arrive at offices within 8:00am and leave at 3:00pm. No one can leave the office before the set time, except those who take permission from their bosses. We’re going to ensure this,” Anwarul told reporters after the cabinet meeting.
