22 lady traffic sergeants get scooters

Twenty two female traffic sergeants today got scooters to provide smooth services to the city commuters.

Dhaka Metropolitan Police Commissioner Asaduzzaman Mia handed over 22 motorbikes to sergeants at the DMP headquarters this morning.

The lady sergeants have been provided with the scooters so that they could reach the traffic jam-prone points and clear the roads immediately, the DMP commissioner said.

Earlier, they have been given training on riding scooters on the city streets.

Bangladesh police recently recruited 28 women to do the difficult job of managing urban transport.
