The authorities and owners have agreed to raise launch fares by at least 35 per cent amid a strike following a hike in diesel prices.

The price has been set at Tk 2.3, up from Tk 1.7 per kilometre travelled within a distance of 100 kilometres -- a 35.3 per cent increase.

After 100 kilometres, the fare will be Tk 2, raised by about 43 per cent from Tk 1.4.

The minimum fare has been raised by Tk 12 to Tk 30, reports bdnews24.com.
