A passenger launch named MV Rejwan collided with an oil tanker on the Daulatdia-Paturia river route on Thursday morning, leaving at least ten passengers injured. The incident occurred around 10 a.m. after the launch departed from Paturia Ghat toward Daulatdia Ghat. Two passengers fell into the river during the collision but managed to swim back to the vessel safely.
According to Rajbari Fire Service and Civil Defense officials at Daulatdia Ghat, the injured passengers were assisted upon arrival and handed over to their relatives. Daulatdia River Police Station Officer-in-Charge Trinath Saha stated that the oil tanker was en route from Nagarbari to Dhaka when the collision nearly occurred. The launch master reversed the vessel sharply to avoid a major crash, causing a jolt that led to minor injuries among several passengers.
All injured passengers later continued to their destinations, and no fatalities were reported in the incident.
