Travellers stranded at Shimulia terminal as govt halts daytime ferries


Ferry services on the route were halted at 3:30 am on Saturday, said Shafiqul Islam, assistant general manager of Bangladesh Inland Water Transport Corporation at Mawa ferry terminal. BIWTC decided to stop daytime ferry services from Saturday after a huge number of people crossed the river on Friday. Ferry services have been shut to avoid risks,” Shafiqul said. Meanwhile, the sudden shutdown of ferries has caused immense sufferings to travellers. The shutdown of public transport has led to travellers paying extra for taxis while some chose to walk to the port.
