Unlike banks and government offices in Bangladesh, most private delivery platforms do not close on public holidays. Ashura, a national holiday that falls on the 10th of Muharram, is no different. But on this day, delivery windows and restaurant availability can vary across platforms.
Chaldal on Muharram Holiday 2026
Chaldal has always been operational on public holidays, including Eid and National Day. The platform is expected to be active in Dhaka, Chattogram and Sylhet on Ashura. Due to holiday demand, delivery slots may fill up faster than usual, so we advise you to place your order early in the morning.
Shajgoj on the day of Ashura
Shajgoj is usually at work on the government holidays. On Muharram day, fresh produce and some categories of items may have limited stock. The night before Ashura, check the app to see if your delivery area is live and pre-add your essentials to your cart.
Pathao Food, Foodpanda on Muharram 2026
Both Pathao Food and Foodpanda keep their platforms active on public holidays. But restaurant availability will depend entirely on which outlets choose to open. Fast food outlets, biryani shops and cloud kitchens mostly stay open on Ashura. Full-service restaurants, fine-dining likely to remain closed. Expect a diminished selection.
