A makeshift market of sacrificial animals occupies a portion of Dhaka-Chittagong highway in Dhaka's Shonir Akhra. Though there is an instruction of the authorities concerned not to set up any such markets on roads, the directive goes unheeded. If any strict measures are not taken, the market there might contribute to traffic jam on the busy road and worsen sufferings of the homw-bound passengers ahead of the Eid-ul-Azha.
