Finance Minister AMA Muhith in his budget speech proposed introduction of school buses in Dhaka city.
“Most of the schools in Dhaka city have no school bus service for their students. So, well off students are using family owned private cars when commuting between schools and homes. This may be one of the reasons of traffic jam in Dhaka city,” he said.
“Like developed countries, introducing dedicated school bus, we can reduce traffic jam in Dhaka city.
For this purpose, concession or exemption from duties will be considered on importation of school bus upon receiving intents from schools or related agencies, he said.
