Speaking after paying tribute to the BNP's founder Ziaur Rahman at his grave on Wednesday, Mirza Fakhrul said that even on the day of the country's biggest religious festival, the people are devoid of any joy. On the toing and froing over the Eid date, Mirza Fakhrul said, "What happened was a result of a lack of good governance in the country. They (Naitonal Moon Sighting Committee) said around 8 - 8:30pm that the moon couldn't be seen, declaring Eid on Thursday. "Then at 10 or 11pm, they revised the date with the direct intervention of the state minister of religious affairs. Mirza Fakhrul added, the people of Bangladesh are suffering from the government's missteps.
