A legal notice has been sent to several government ministries demanding compensation for the families of those killed in the Rajbari Daulatdia ferry bus accident. The notice, issued on Wednesday, March 25, calls for a minimum of Tk 10 million for each deceased victim and for proper treatment and rehabilitation of the injured. It was jointly filed by Advocate Newazul Asif Sad, Barrister Rafi G. Rahman, and Advocate Zayed Bin Naser against the ministers and secretaries of the Road Transport and Bridges and Shipping ministries.
The notice emphasizes the need for an impartial investigation to determine whether negligence by authorities, ferry terminal management, or transport officials contributed to the incident. The accident occurred when a bus from the “Souhardya” Paribahan line lost control while boarding a ferry at Daulatdia Ghat’s pontoon number 3, resulting in 26 confirmed deaths.
The notice urges the government to take coordinated action within seven working days to ensure compensation, medical care, and rehabilitation, warning of legal steps if no action is taken. It also calls for a high-level inquiry committee to publish its findings within the same timeframe.
