Quader says sorry for home-goers’ sufferings on highways

Expressing sorrow for Eid holidaymakers' sufferings on highways amid gridlocks, Road Transport and Bridges Minister Obaidul Quader on Sunday said the situation will improve this afternoon.

"As a minister, I can't shirk the responsibility for people's sufferings," he said while talking to reporters after visiting Sayedabad bus terminal in the morning.

The minister, however, claimed that there was congestion on Dhaka-Tangail highway only, not on all the highways.

He also said instant actions are being taken whenever any irregularity is found on any road.
