Train services will resume from Monday with compliance to the health guidelines, said Railways Minister Nurul Islam Sujan today.

After being suspended since 5 April to curb the Covid-19 infection, the train services will resume with only 28 pairs of intercity trains.

The minister said, "Tickets will be sold keeping the alternate seat vacant. Only 50% of tickets will be sold."

No tickets will be sold at the counters; all tickets will be sold online, he added.

The Cabinet Division issued a gazette notification allowing inter-district public transports to run, along with restaurants to serve customers at half capacity.

The ongoing countrywide lockdown has also been extended till 30 May midnight to curb the Covid-19 spread.

BENEATH THE SURFACE
The Dazzling Fake Flowers: Is there any alternative to artificial flowers while decorating homes, showrooms, offices and business establishments? Fresh flowers are undoubtedly beautiful, but they dry out quickly. Hence, the demand for plastic flowers is rising day by day. Traders said these lifelike silk flowers usually come from China and Thailand. The photo was taken from the 29th International Trade Fair of the Chattogram Chamber on Friday.
