Rangamati-Chittagong road link resumes after 8 days

Staff Correspondent, Chittagong: The road communication between Rangamati and Chittagong resumed only for light vehicles on Wednesday afternoon.

The communication restored nearly eight days after the route was evidently in poor shape for vehicular movement due to the landslide triggered by a heavy rain.

Major Jahangir Kabir Talukdar, GOC of the Chittagong Cantonment, opened the route for light vehicles around 3:00pm.

The Chittagong-Rangamati highway was largely damaged due to deadliest landslides triggered by heavy downpour on June 13. As a result, the road communication came to a halt.
