After being suspended for more than one and a half years, the Agartala-Dhaka bus service has officially resumed. On Tuesday afternoon, a Tripura Road Transport Corporation (TRTC) bus carrying five passengers entered Bangladesh through the Akhaura land port in Brahmanbaria. Earlier that morning, a bus from Dhaka reached Agartala through the same route, where Tripura’s Transport Minister Sushanta Chowdhury and TRTC’s acting chairman Samar Roy welcomed it, marking the formal reopening of passenger transport on the route.
According to the Akhaura International Immigration Checkpost, the service had been halted following the 2024 student and public uprising, during which India also restricted visa services for Bangladeshis. TRTC began trial operations on the route in late January before the official launch. Police sub-inspector Sharif Rahman confirmed that the bus will initially operate twice a week.
On the first day of resumed service, nine people, including staff and passengers, traveled from Dhaka to Agartala, while five passengers returned from Agartala to Dhaka.
