Road Transport and Bridges Minister Obaidul Quader on Wednesday ordered the authorities concerned to take steps so that the battery-run three-wheelers cannot ply roads in Dhaka city.
"No battery-run three-wheelers will be allowed on city roads and already plying of three-wheelers has been prohibited on 22 highways," he said while speaking at the advisory council meeting at Bangladesh Road Transport Authority (BRTA) headquarters, reports UNB.
Earlier, the mayors of the two city corporations also agreed on stopping movement of battery-run three wheelers on Dhaka city roads.
Besides, the minister also expressed dissatisfaction over the movement of discoloured and rundown vehicles on city roads.
Meanwhile, a decision was taken to go for 'No helmet no fuel' policy and the deputy commissioners have been asked to take measures in this regard.
