Bandarban tunnel falls apart in less than two years

A 500-foot-long tunnel was built to connect the old bus station with the newly constructed central bus terminal in Bandarban town. Less than two years after its inauguration, it has fallen into disrepair. The tunnel lights no longer work, forcing vehicles to pass through with headlights on. Water seeps down the walls, and mud constantly blocks the entrance.
