Compilation
Of Train Top Traveling In Bangladesh
Each year in
January Bangladesh hosts the three day Bishwa Ijtema festival. It is held at
Tongi beside the river Turag a short way north of Dhaka. This is the worlds
third largest gathering Muslim pilgrims with up to 5 million attending. To
transport this number of people, the Bangladesh Government puts on for free
special trains. The grossly overcrowded trains create a spectacular sight.
However despite what has been written elsewhere, this is not the usual state of
affairs on Bangladesh Railways. Regular trains are crowded and some passengers
ride on the roof but nothing like the festival trains. The video shows trains
taking passengers to the festival in the morning and returning back to the city
at the end of the last day.
