Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina inaugurated a new extension of Dhaka’s metro rail, aiming to reduce traffic congestion in the capital. The expansion connects several key residential areas with the business district.
Officials said the metro project, developed with Japanese assistance, will ease daily commutes for nearly half a million passengers.
For Bangladesh-based reporting, it’s a milestone in urban transport modernization. For Indian and regional audiences, the development highlights South Asia’s fast-changing infrastructure landscape, with potential cross-border benefits through trade and mobility.
