UNB, Dhaka :
The government on Tuesday asked the Bangladesh Road Transport Authority (BRTA) and Dhaka Metropolitan Police (DMP) to take legal actions against those responsible for the death of two students in a road accident on Airport Road on Sunday.
It also directed them to take actions as per law against the underage drivers and drivers without licences in mass transports, according to a release from the PM’s Press Wing.
The directives have been given from a meeting held at the Prime Minister’s Office (PMO) with Road Transport and Highways Division, BRTA, Bangladesh Road Transport Corporation (BRTC) and other organisations concerned.
PM’s Principal Secretary M Nojibur Rahman presided over the meeting.
Khanam Mim and Abdul Karim Rajib, students of Shaheed Ramiz Uddin Cantonment College, were killed as a Jabal-e-Noor bus ploughed through a crowd while competing with another bus of the same company in front of Kurmitola General Hospital on July 29.
