The ninth session of the eleventh parliament, the fourth session this year, will begin at 11 am on Sept 6. The parliament secretariat is not issuing entry cards to journalists barring them from attending the ninth session as a measure of social distancing. The media personnel are requested to gather news on parliament sessions from Bangladesh Television, Sangsad Television and Radio Bangladesh, the parliament secretariat said in a statement on Tuesday. During the session, a limited number of officials and staff will have access to the parliament, a parliament secretariat official said. It was the shortest parliament session in the history of parliamentary democracy in Bangladesh with only nine working days.
