There has been no decision yet over operating trains at half of their capacities, said Railways Minister Md Nurul Islam Sujon.
“No decision has been taken yet over carrying 50 per cent passengers in trains…we’ll let you know if there’s any decision,” he said.
The Railways Minister came up with the information while talking to reporters at a deal-signing ceremony at Railway Bhaban in the capital on Tuesday.
On Monday, the government has imposed restrictions on public movement and other activities like operating public transport at their half capacities amid the growing concern over the new Omicron variant of Coronavirus.
The Cabinet Division issued the notification on Monday which will take effect on January 13 and will remain in force until further notice, reports UNB.
