Muslims in Bangladesh observed Eid-e-Miladunnabi, the birth anniversary of Prophet Muhammad, on Wednesday. The Prime Minister and President of Bangladesh extended their greetings to the Muslim Ummah on this occasion.

The Indian stock market will remain open on August 26 despite Eid-e-Milad, with the BSE and NSE observing only a settlement holiday. Trading will continue as usual, while clearing and settlement activities will remain suspended.
