He was speaking to reporters after a meeting between the transport owners and the BRTA on Sunday (November 8) evening.
At the same meeting, it was decided that the fare hike would be taken from the passengers on Monday (November 8). However, the fare of CNG-powered vehicles is not increasing.
Enayet Ullah Khan, general secretary of the Road Transport Owners Association, said, "I call on the car owners to call off the bus strike."
Enayet Ullah Khan further said that the new fare will be effective from tomorrow (Monday). We will keep an eye on the collection of extra rent. Traffic will start from today. I urge you to call off the strike and keep the communication system normal. He also called for starting bus services from all districts.
The owners demanded a rescheduling, but no one spoke at the meeting about reducing diesel prices.
There were public transport strikes in protest of rising fuel prices. But why have the owners stopped the CNG-powered buses? When asked, Enayet Ullah Khan said that the number of CNG-powered buses is only 1/2 percent.
They have also closed because other owners have closed. However, this issue will be looked into.
More news: New fares from tomorrow, bus strike called off.
