Although the highways adjoining the Ijtema Ground were open during the Akheri Munajat, the Tongi-Kamarpara Road was blocked as devotees sat there and took part in the special prayer.
The law enforcers remained cautious due to the drone incident during the first phase of the Bishwa Ijtema and the threat of attack on the Ijtema during the first day of the second phase of the gathering.
According to the government's decision, the first phase of Bishwa Ijtema was conducted by the followers of Maulana Jubayer from 31 January to 5 February.
The second phase of the Bishwa Ijtema was carried out by the followers of Maulana Saad from 14 February to 16 February.
