Bus services on Chapainawabganj-Rajshahi route remained suspended for the second consecutive day on Tuesday, causing immense suffering to commuters.
The suspension follows an attack on a bus driver of Chapainawabganj allegedly by transport workers of Rajshahi on Saturday.
In retaliation, a Rajshahi-bound bus was vandalised in Chapainawabganj.
As no buses were running, passengers were forced to travel in CNG-run autorickshaws and other mini vehicles, paying extra fares.
