পশ্চিমবঙ্গ সরকার বকরি ঈদের ছুটির দিন পরিবর্তন করেছে। আগে ২৬ ও ২৭ মে ২০২৬ ছুটি ঘোষণা করা হয়েছিল, কিন্তু এখন জানা গেছে ঈদ হবে ২৮ মে, বৃহস্পতিবার। তাই নতুন সিদ্ধান্ত অনুযায়ী, ২৮ মে ২০২৬-কে সরকারি ছুটি ঘোষণা করা হয়েছে। সাধারণ মানুষের জন্য প্রাসঙ্গিক হলো, আপনারা এখন ২৮ মে বকরি ঈদের ছুটি পাবেন, আগের দিন দুটিতে আর ছুটি থাকছে না।
