BSS, Rajbari

Dense fog and a cold wave sweeping across the district disrupted the launch and ferry services between Paturia and Daulatdia ghats for nearly nine hours yesterday.

BIWTC sources said drivers kept their vehicles parked at both the ferry ghats as thick fog reduced the visibility.

Other river transports including boats and launches did not ply during the period, they said.

Besides, four upazilas of the district experienced a light cold wave which added to the sufferings of the people.
