About the time in Dhaka
Clocks in Dhaka stay put all year. There is no summer-time switch to remember, so UTC +6 is what you will get in January and in July alike — useful if you book recurring calls with people in Bangladesh.
Around 10,356,500 people live in Dhaka, and all of them keep the same civil time, so the reading above applies to the whole urban area — not just the city centre.
Dhaka sits at latitude 23.71, in the mid-latitude band, so day length here swings noticeably between midwinter and midsummer — today's 12h 51m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
