Bad weather disrupts unloading of goods at Ctg Port
Sunday, 23 September 2007
Unloading of goods from ships in Chittagong Port was disrupted Saturday following a restriction on the movement of lighter vessels due to bad weather. The Port Authority suspended the movement of lighter vessels following a depression over the north-west Bay and its adjoining areas. The maritime ports of Chittagong, Cox's Bazar and Mongla have been advised to hoist local warning signal number four. Besides, the people living in the low-lying coastal areas of Sitakund, Mirsarai, Swandip, Anwara and Banshkhali upazilas have been asked to take shelter in safer places. —UNB
