Bangladesh Railway’s running staff called off their strike after receiving assurances regarding their demand to include the running allowance in pensions and gratuity. Train operations, halted since Monday midnight, resumed early Wednesday. Despite resumption, delays persisted due to technical issues, with some trains leaving up to two and a half hours late. Many passengers were unaware of the strike’s withdrawal, resulting in empty seats. Officials expect normalcy within a few days. Passengers expressed relief as services gradually returned to schedule.
