A young farmer named Alamin from Monohardi in Narsingdi repaid his unpaid train fares after ten years by purchasing 127 tickets worth Tk 10,160 from the Narsingdi railway station on May 24, 2026. He had frequently traveled between Narsingdi and Dhaka without tickets over the past decade while attending political events. The payment was made to station master Abdul Mannan in the presence of railway officials and Alamin’s associates.

Alamin, the youngest of five siblings from Charmandalya village, said financial hardship and fear of police had often prevented him from buying tickets during his student years. A devoted supporter of the Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP), he regularly joined party programs in Dhaka. Recently, remorse over his past actions led him to repay the government by buying the equivalent number of tickets. He even took a bank loan to make the payment.

Station master Abdul Mannan praised Alamin’s honesty, calling his action a rare example of integrity and civic responsibility.
