DHAKA, Oct 04, 2025 (BSS) - 'Kathin Chibar Dan', one of the most significant religious festivals of the Buddhist community will be observed across the country tomorrow.

The annual observance marks the offering of robes and other essentials to monks by Buddhist devotees. 

As part of the ritual, a special robe known as 'Kathin Chibar' is woven, dyed, and stitched within a single day before being ceremonially presented to the monks as an act of deep religious merit.

The festival holds deep spiritual significance in Buddhism, symbolizing devotion, sacrifice and communal harmony. It also aims to inspire unity, solidarity and discipline among the followers of the faith.

Temples and monasteries across the country have made preparations to hold various religious programs, including prayers, sermons, and the formal robe-offering ceremony.

Chief Adviser Professor Muhammad Yunus is expected to issue message on the occasion of the 'Kathin Chibar Dan' and 'Shubho Probarona Purnima', the second-largest festival of the Buddhist community.
