Failure to pay additional fee for driving license is shown. Many can't pass the test even after three to five times if they don't get the contract. After paying an additional fee of three times the fee set by the government, if you do not give Musafa (handshake) again and again, you will be failed. Evidence of such allegations has been found against Bangladesh Transport Authority (BRTA) Cumilla Circle.

After 30 minutes of challenging, two employees of his office were arrested with money. The assistant director of Cumilla circle claimed that he did not know these things because he had just joined. 40 people receive training per month in government projects from the Youth Development Department. One of them is Tariq Rahman. He said, at least one day before the exam Five thousand taka have to be paid along with the learner's photocopy.

Besides, 100 taka for taking finger and photograph, 300 taka for permission to do practical and 200 taka for sitting in driving seat without receipt. I paid 100 through receipt and 200 without receipt for the bike.

Suman Mia has applied for professional driving license. His home is Gholpasha village of Chauddagram. He complained, I learned driving from Comilla TTC. Driving and mechanical work i know I will give exam three times including today. I keep getting failed. I am not willing to pay any money. Those who cannot pass the contract for five to twelve thousand rupees.

Amod reporter verified their complaints on the spot. The figures for March and April show that the above allegations are true. However, Cumilla BRTA Circle Assistant Director Engineer Md Farooq Alam challenged the reporter on March 16 and said that the learner's application is online. Therefore, if any additional money is transacted, the employee of this department will not have a job. After 1 pm on Tuesday, two employees were brought before the assistant director while taking money from customers for finger prints. They admit it.

At that time, motor vehicle inspector Md. Saiful Kabir said that the prescribed fee for car use is 300 taka and for bike use 100 taka is taken through receipt. It is valid. I have come to know during Ramadan that the transactions that have been reported before or after this have been reported. The assistant assured the manager that it was closed now.

Regarding these issues, Cumilla BRTA Circle Assistant Director Engineer Md. Farooq Alam said, I have just joined here. Didn't know about charging extra money. Sorry for the challenge. It is better if you don't do news.
