The government has launched a special bus service for the stranded passengers at train station due to the nationwide suspension of train services.

Railway ministry issued a press notification in this regard on Tuesday (January 28).

Rail communication has been disrupted across the country since January 28 due to the Bangladesh Railway running staff strike. To combat the disruption, BRTC bus services have been introduced on important rail routes to facilitate passenger transportation, reads a press release.

Passengers traveling from Dhaka Railway Station and Airport Railway Station to Chattogram, Rajshahi, Sylhet, Khulna, Cumilla, Bogura, and Mymensingh can use the BRTC bus service with their purchased train tickets. Similarly, passengers from these locations can travel to Dhaka using the same service.
