After a months-long suspension due to intense protests, metro services in Dhaka have finally resumed.
The protests ran through June and July in mid-July and caused significant disruptions, including the vandalism of metro stations and the resignation of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina.
Ordered by Muhammad Yunus, the leader of the new caretaker government, reopening marks a significant step towards restoring normalcy in the capital, Dhaka.
"When the metro was shut down, I had to travel by bus. That was the only mode of transport I could use. I had to face many jams, but there was no jam on the metro. It used to take two hours on the bus but with the metro, I can reach my destination in 15 minutes," said Kaosar Khan, a metro commuter told AFP.
The Dhaka Metro was inaugurated in 2022 and has been one of the key infrastructure projects of Hasina's tenure.
