The interim government is taking decisive steps to designate the Dhaka Metro Rail as a Key Point Installation (KPI) and emergency service, aiming to prevent future attacks and vandalism.
Muhammad Fouzul Kabir Khan, Adviser to the Ministry of Road Transport and Bridges, made this announcement during a briefing at the Secretariat station of the metro rail on Sunday morning, reports UNB.
"The government is actively working to upgrade the metro rail's status to a KPI," said Khan. "This measure will significantly enhance security and safeguard the metro rail from any acts of vandalism."
He emphasized that declaring the metro rail an emergency service is essential to ensure its uninterrupted operations, which are crucial for the city's daily commute.
When asked about the perpetrators behind the recent disruptions, the adviser dismissed the notion that those advocating for change in the country were responsible, instead attributing the incidents to "miscreants."
