The Ministry of Religious Affairs (Bengali: ধর্ম বিষয়ক মন্ত্রণালয়) (abbreviated as MoRA) is the ministry responsible for religious events, buildings, and Hajj in Bangladesh.
History[edit]
The ministry is responsible for the management of Hajj and Umrah in Bangladesh.[1][2]Biswa Ijtema is also managed by the ministry.[3] The ministry gained some attention after using Arabic script to discourage public urination; since few Bangladeshis understand Arabic, anything written in Arabic is presumed to be sacred and not to be urinated on.[4]

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
