A goods-laden truck overturned early Saturday on the Dhaka-Chattogram Highway, causing severe traffic congestion in the Gazaria area of Munshiganj. The incident occurred on the Chattogram-bound lane near the Bausia point, with the traffic jam stretching from there to the Meghna Bridge area.

According to the officer-in-charge of the Bhoberchar Highway Police Outpost, Md. Shah Kamal Akand, the truck overturned in the Vitikandi area, leading to the disruption. Highway police responded promptly, beginning the removal of goods and the damaged vehicle from the road to restore normal traffic flow.

Authorities expect vehicle movement to return to normal within a short time once the clearing operation is completed.
