Later, the minister joined a virtual view-exchange with officials of BRTC and BRTA Gopalganj Zone.
Pointing to Gopalganj Zone engineers, he said people of different classes and professions from home and abroad frequently visit the mausoleum of Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman at Tungipara in the district to pay homage to the great leader.
So, the maintenance and monitoring works of the roads under Gopalganj Zone should be strengthened, he added.
The minister underscored the need for bringing transparency in the services of Bangladesh Road Transport Authority (BRTA).
The issuance of driving license card should be smoother and quicker and if required, card issuance should be done in phases, he added.
