Prime Minister Tarique Rahman has left Mongla by road for the historic shrine of Hazrat Khan Jahan Ali (R) in Bagerhat town after completing development-related programmes at Mongla Port. He is scheduled to address a brief roadside gathering in the Katakhali area of Fakirhat along the way.

Ahead of the Prime Minister’s arrival, leaders and activists of the BNP and its affiliated and associate organisations have gathered along both sides of the road from Mongla to Bagerhat town. Local residents have also gathered at various points to catch a glimpse of him and welcome him. The presence of party activists has created a festive atmosphere along the route.

This is Tarique Rahman’s second visit to Bagerhat within just 14 days. His visit has generated enthusiasm among local political circles as well as considerable interest among residents.

According to the itinerary, the Prime Minister will address a brief roadside gathering in Katakhali before visiting the shrine of Hazrat Khan Jahan Ali (R) in Bagerhat town. He is then scheduled to travel by road to Khulna.

Local residents hope the visit will help accelerate the modernisation and expansion of Mongla Port, while also boosting transport infrastructure, employment and overall development across Bagerhat and the wider south-western region.
