KANA MACHHI


A kanamachhi is chosen from the players. He/she is then blindfolded. The other players run around the kanamachhi. The children shout out the rhyme 'Kana machhi bho bho, jake pabi take chho'. The kanamachhi runs after the others trying to catch one of them. The person who is touched or caught has to be identified by name. If correctly identified, he/she becomes the new kanamachhi, and the game repeats. A large empty space is appropriate for this game as we don't want to injure our kanamachhi.

Muslims across the country are celebrating Eid-ul-Azha today.

The key feature of the Eid-ul-Azha, the second most important Muslim religious festival, is Qurbani (sacrifice), following the prayers in the morning.

However, the country’s largest Eid congregation is traditionally held at Sholakia Eidgah in Kishoreganj.

Today is public Holiday.
