Why is it continuously failing to finish projects on time and within budget?

E-ticketing platform Shohoz recently filed a writ petition with the High Court (HC), challenging the legality of the Tk 2 lakh fine by the Directorate of National Consumer Rights Protection (DNCRP) after receiving a complaint from Dhaka University student Mohiuddin Rony over irregularities in ticket sales.

Dhaka University student Mohiuddin Roni today (July 25, 2022) called off his protest, against the mismanagement and corruption in the country's railway system, for the time being.

Shohoz JV today claimed that it showed no negligence in providing services, adding that the allegations made by Dhaka University student Mohiuddin Roni were not true.

Chronic problems preventing it from getting expected results

When was the last time we heard of any positive news about Bangladesh Railway (BR)? I don’t remember coming across any in recent years.

Despite increasing government investment in Bangladesh Railway over the years, railway services have not shown much improvement and the entity is continuing to rack up losses.

Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina yesterday said the government has a plan to introduce electric and high-speed trains in the country to make the railway services better and faster.

The train communication of the country's northern part with Dhaka was restored three-hour after disruption following a collision between two freight trains in Bhangura railway station this morning.
