Traditional 'Jabbar er Boli Khela' in Ctg from April 24

CHATTOGRAM, Apr 16 (UNB): Chattogram City Corporation has decided to hold the 111th edition of popular wrestling competition 'Jabbar er Boli Khela' from April 24 to 26 this year on the Kotwali to Andarkilla road in the port city.
CCC Mayor Rezaul Karim Chowdhury made the announcement in a press briefing on Saturday after a meeting with the committee members for arranging the Jabbar er Boli Khela wrestling competition and fair at his residence.
Earlier on April 13, the committee announced suspension of this year's Jabbarer Boli Khela as the traditional site for arranging the competition, Laldighi playground, was being renovated. Rezaul Karim Chowdhury said, "The earlier announcement disheartened people and they requested us to not suspend it so we decided to arrange it anyway."
"This year, the competition will be held on the road in front of the Laldighi playground area from 3 pm to 5 pm. The competition used to be held for five days but this year it will be a three-day competition along with a fair," he said.
