Ferry operations on the Aricha-Kazirhat route have been temporarily suspended due to dense fog, according to the port authorities. As a result, four ferries are currently stranded mid-river.
On Monday (January 6), ferry services on this route were halted at 6:10 am. The matter was confirmed by Nasir Mohammad Chowdhury, Deputy General Manager (Commercial) of BIWTC's Aricha office.
Nasir Mohammad Chowdhury stated that ferry operations on the Aricha-Kazirhat route have been suspended to prevent accidents caused by dense fog on the river. Four ferries are currently stranded mid-river. Ferry operations will resume once the fog density decreases.
