Shipping Minister Sheikh Robiul Alam stated that the government is determined to ensure smooth travel for homebound passengers during the upcoming Eid holidays. He emphasized that coordinated preparations are being made across road, rail, and waterways to guarantee safe and comfortable journeys. The minister made these remarks on Sunday, May 10, at an event marking Maritime Safety Week 2026 at the Ladies Club in Eskaton, Dhaka.
He highlighted that Bangladesh’s economy remains largely labor-dependent, with garment workers, expatriate laborers, and domestic workers all contributing significantly to national development. The minister also noted that the country’s extensive 16,000-kilometer network of waterways is one of its greatest natural assets.
The government’s focus on integrated transport management aims to minimize disruptions during the Eid travel rush, particularly in the river transport sector, where strict monitoring has been promised.
