No complaints of extra fare on waterways: State Minister
State Minister for Shipping Rajib Ahshan has said that no complaints of extra fare collection have been reported on waterways ahead of Eid-ul-Fitr.
During a visit to Sadarghat Launch Terminal on Tuesday (March 17), he said, "The government has set fares 10 per cent below the official rates to ensure comfortable travel for passengers."
The minister added that regular inspections have been strengthened to ensure the fitness and safety of the launches. Additional terminals at Bojila and Shimulia have been opened to ease passenger congestion, and plans are underway to make them permanent.
All necessary preparations have been taken to ensure improved passenger services and a smooth journey during the festive period, he said.
