Train services at Dhaka's Airport Station have resumed after a three-hour disruption due to student protests over the unavailability of tickets to Rajshahi.
Dhaka Railway Police Station chief Mazharul Islam confirmed.
He said normal services resumed around 12:30 pm on Wednesday, almost three hours after the protest launched, as railway officials assured students that steps would be taken to ensure that they can travel to Rajshahi.
Students descended on the rail tracks around 9 am on Wednesday after being told that tickets to the district had been sold out.
A Nilphamari-bound Nil Sagar Express train was stopped in its tracks, while rail links to other parts of the country were also disrupted.
