Two special metro rail services will operate from 7:10am and 7:20am from Uttara North station from Wednesday to facilitate students and professionals of different educational institutions.

However, the services will be available only for commuters with MRT pass or Rapid pass, according to Dhaka Mass Transit Company Limited (DMTCL).

The two metro trains will stop at all metro rail stations that are currently operational, DMTCL said in a Facebook post.
