Police on March 15 last year seized a mini-truck for using it to attempt a robbery. Since then, the vehicle has been kept at Cumilla Sadar South Police Station. Despite this fact, the mini-truck (Chattogram Metro-NA-11-2608) got its fitness certificate in November.
Awami League General Secretary Obaidul Quader assures that there will be no exaggeration in enforcing the new Road Transport Act to bring normalcy in the transport sector.
The authorities have put into effect the Road Transport Act-2018 on November 17 and already a number of problems have crept up. It seems that not all the ground realities that militate against its efficient and strict implementation have been taken into account.
Road Transport and Bridges Minister Obaidul Quader asks the authorities concerned not to file any case under the new Road Transport Act in the next seven days as the government may formulate rules under the act by this time.
Blaming the company-based bus service in Dhaka city as the root cause of extortion in the transport sector, Bangladesh Road Transport Owners Association demands the authority to change the system.
Road transport workers will observe a 48-hour work abstention from 6:00am today to press home their eight-point demand mainly related to bringing amendments to the recently passed Road Transport Act-2018.
