Many lines of Sylhet-Akhaura rail road are dangerous. As a result intercity trains are not reaching the station on time. Because of this, the passengers suffered. A few days ago it used to reach the station 5/10 days ahead of time. But now a different picture is seen. In the last 15 days the lines were renovated to mark the arrival of Bangabandhu’s daughter Sheikh Rehana. But these works are going on at a snail’s pace. As a result, the train is arriving late at the station. Besides, work is not being done as per tender and schedule. Every job has been reported to be of substandard quality.

According to the investigation, more than half a hundred bridges from Sylhet to Akhaura are dangerous. Sylhet-Habiganj railway communication with the whole country may be cut off with the loss of life due to collapse at any time. Among them, many bridges including Shahjibazar, Shahpur, Shaistaganj Khoai River Bridge, Satyajuri, Samser Nagar, Sadakpur are at risk.

Today, Monday, the Kalni train left Sylhet and reached Shaistaganj at 10 am instead of 9 am. Sylhet-bound Parabat is in the same situation. These two trains cross at Shaistaganj. Many suffer. The drivers of the trains said that the delay was due to thick fog and dangerous lines.
