Launch services resume after disruption by Cyclone Remal



Dhaka, May 28 - Launches operating on inland waterways from Dhaka resumed at 12:00 pm today following the withdrawal of the warning signal issued by the BMD after the influence of Cyclone Remal weakened.

Bangladesh Inland Water Transport Authority (BIWTA) Public Relations Officer Ehteshamul Parvez confirmed the matter in a press release today.

Earlier on Sunday, the Shipping Ministry suspended launch services on all routes from 10:00 pm due to the deep depression over the east-central Bay and adjoining west-central Bay intensifying into Cyclone Remal.-UNB
