The swearing-in ceremony of the interim government is today. So today, for the sake of security, a limit has been imposed on the withdrawal of money from the bank. No more than one lakh cash can be withdrawn from one account. But this decision will be applicable only for today.

Bangladesh Bank’s managing directors or MDs gave this instruction in an urgent message on Wednesday night.

As per the guidelines, even if a customer cannot withdraw cash, they can transfer any amount of cash and do digital transactions.

It is known that after the change of government, the pressure of cash withdrawal increased slightly. There is especially pressure to withdraw cash from pro-Awami politicians and business families. Bangladesh Bank has decided to discourage the withdrawal of cash so that these funds are not used in any way for terrorist or illegal activities. In continuation of this, Bangladesh Bank announced this decision last night.

Apart from this, the central bank has ordered to stop disbursement of money from the head office to the branches for today. It is also advised to encourage customers to pay by check.
