Since the Google calendar was not updated, the State Minister for Information and Communication Technology Division Zunaid Ahmed Palak and his wife Arifa Jasmin Kanika faced a weird experience while going to attend a marriage ceremony on Saturday night.
Arifa Jasmin Kanika, wife of the state minister, shared some sweet memories of the past along with that experience on her Facebook page on Saturday night.
In a Facebook post, she wrote, ‘Today I went to a wedding reception at Senakunja. It was around 10 pm when the minister reached there after finishing his pre-scheduled programs. After going there, they found nothing but darkness around the Senakunja. There was no sign of a marriage ceremony. ‘Thinking that the venue was wrong, I went to Sena Malncha. But, there was the same situation! Finally, after calling the bridegroom it was found out that the wedding date has been changed. The date was not updated in the minister’s Google calendar’.
Meanwhile, we told at home for not keeping food for us as we were going to attend a party. Necessarily, I went out in search of restaurants in Dhanmondi area. Most of the restaurants were closed by around 11pm. Finally, we went to Barbeque Two Nights on 27th Road. It was a small restaurant but the food was very tasty.
While eating I remembered – ‘Many years ago, Palak lived in a small house in Dhaka for his LLB exam. I was a teacher. Along with study, I was continuing my family. I used to come to Dhaka when I got leave. Once he said to me, I will feed you a delicious meal. My very favorite, I eat whenever I get a chance. He took me to a restaurant. Although it was a small restaurant, there is a lot of people there. Some were eating while others were taking food packets away. That day we also had a lot of fun and ate khichuri.’
While recalling about that day, the minister said, that day we had delicious khichuri at the the Gharowa Hotel and Restaurant next to Madhumati Cinema hall in Motijheel.
