Entry, parking instructions issued for invited guests at JS first session

Authorities have issued instructions regarding entry and parking arrangements for invited guests attending the first session of the 13th Jatiya Sangsad at the parliament complex on Thursday.

According to a press release, three gates of the Jatiya Sangsad Bhaban will remain open for invited guests: Manipuripara Gate (Gate-6), Bakultala Gate (Gate-12) and Asad Gate (Gate-1).

Guests have been requested to avoid using the Manipuripara Gate as heavy traffic is expected there and instead enter the parliament complex through Bakultala Gate and Asad Gate to help reduce congestion and ensure smooth access.

The release also asked guests to park their vehicles at designated locations according to the parking stickers sent with their invitation cards. The stickers include Padma, Meghna, Jamuna, Shapla, Bakul, Shiuli and Shimul.

Vehicles bearing Padma, Meghna, Jamuna and Shapla stickers will be allowed to park at different locations inside the parliament premises, while those with Bakul, Shimul and Shiuli stickers will be parked at the old Dhaka International Trade Fair ground.

Vehicles of electronic and print media organisations will have to park in a single line along the main road of Manik Mia Avenue.

All invited guests have been requested to get down from their vehicles at Tunnel Road and then enter the parliament complex.

They have also been asked to minimise the time spent getting down from vehicles and ensure that drivers or accompanying persons remain inside the vehicles.

Guests and all concerned have been requested to follow the instructions of the Dhaka Metropolitan Police’s traffic division at the entry gates and designated parking areas.
