Suffering at Daulatdia-Paturia ferry terminal
Daulatdia-Paturia ferry terminal is one of the busiest of the country. Recently, the mighty Padma has washed away three of the four landing stations at the terminal. As a result, BIWTC had suspended the ferry services. According to reports, labourers are repairing the connecting roads to the landing stations by dumping sand bags. We urge the authority to take permanent measures such as using concrete slabs instead of sand bags and bamboos. That will put an end to the needless suffering of the people using the terminal during the rainy season.
