TDS Desk:
Mirpur-10 metro rail station resumed operations on Tuesday morning, three months after it was vandalised and shut down in July.
During a visit to the station, Muhammad Fauzul Kabir Khan, Advisor to the Ministry of Road Transport and Bridges, revealed that the repairs of the damaged metro station cost Tk1.25 crore.
On 19 July, unidentified individuals vandalised the Mirpur-10 and Kazipara metro stations during the nationwide Anti-Discrimination Student Movement, which eventually escalated into a mass uprising that toppled the Awami League government. Metro rail operations were suspended for over a month following the incidents.
Although metro rail services resumed on 25 August, Mirpur-10 and Kazipara stations remained closed. The DMTCL reopened Kazipara station on 20 September.
