The Bangladesh Bank has recently instructed banks to provide fake currency detection service by manned by experienced cash officers at cattle markets in Dhaka.

Banks cannot charge any fees for this. They also have to follow health rules to curb the coronavirus infection. 

From July 28 till the night before Eid-ul Azha, banks have to provide the service to protect against the ill motive of fake currency syndicates.
