Facebook video clip with the headline "CNG stands to collect half a crore rupees monthly" was posted after the CNG drivers refused to pay the fine.
Rangpur, the North's medical hub, sees thousands of visitors from the nearby regions each day seeking medical attention. Originally, the Lalmonirhat district town served as the entry point for residents of Aditmari, Kaliganj, Hatibandha, and Patgram to reach Rangpur. Gradually, it caused them harm.
Following Sheikh Hasina's inauguration of the second Teesta Bridge (Mahipur Bridge), the residents of these four upazilas feel relieved. On this road, there are no buses or regional routes. For easy commuting to Rangpur, CNG three-wheelers are your best bet. Long-term users of CNG on this road come from four different upazilas in Lalmonirhat.
Unknown causes have caused the abrupt cessation of CNG traffic on the Kakina-Mahipur route. The travellers have experienced significant hardship. However, a great deal of concern for their family is what hundreds of CNG drivers live for every day.
After further inquiry, it was discovered that, while posing as a reporter for a nearby newspaper, a monthly subscription of 3,000 Taka was requested at the CNG station next to the bank.
A Facebook video clip with the headline "CNG stands to collect half a crore rupees monthly" was posted after the CNG drivers refused to pay the fine. Should the motorists get frightened after watching the film, they spend the rest of the day driving about in terror.
Meanwhile, riders claim that the CNG outage has increased the time it takes to go by easybike to Hatibandha and Kaliganj. Because they don't own a car and it's nighttime when they see the doctor, they have to endure suffering. Many people frequently travel to Rangpur and leave after work to return home, with passengers claiming that CNG can get them there faster.
Later, CNG was confiscated in a number of locations, and drivers ceased moving CNG out of concern for legal action. Drivers insist that their long-standing driving style not be changed.
If CNG traffic is blocked on this road, hundreds of households would be forced to go without food. They assert that the education of their kids will be discontinued.
For the convenience of thousands of passengers and the families of hundreds of CNG drivers, drivers and passengers expect the administration to be helpful.
