Bangladesh Inland Water Transport Corporation (BIWTC) has increased the fare for its passenger ships and ferry services by 20 per cent effective from Sunday, reports UNB.
This was announced in a BIWTC press release on Thursday.
It said the authority has re-fixed the fare in the wake of price hike of fuel.
“From 6:00am on 19 June the fare will be effective for all kinds of vessels, including the passenger ships,” it said.
