Country’s busiest and largest launch terminal Sadarghat is revitalized this year as Eid holidaymakers are buzzing around to take water vessels to reach destinations thanks to enhanced management, getting rid of drought of passengers after Padma bridge opening.

Despite modern roads and railways, waterways appears to be a reliable, comfortable and popular route of communication to the people specially who lives near riverbanks and in the south-western districts of Barishal, Bhola, Patuakhali, Barguna, Pirojpur, Jhalakathi as well as south-eastern districts of Noakhali, Chandpur and Laxmipur.

Bangladesh Inland Water Transport Authority, the Naval Police and other authorities concerned have taken initiatives to make peoples Eid journey on waterways safe, smooth and comfortable.

On the ground, it can be seen that the number of passengers at the Sadarghat Launch Terminal is increasing compared to other times of the year. Law enforcement agencies already beefed up security measures at the terminal ahead of Eid-ul-Fitr, the biggest religious festival of the Muslims.

Authorities ensured neat and clean washrooms, breastfeeding corners and waiting rooms to facilitate passengers.
