Bangladesh Police has launched a ‘movement pass’ for people who need to go out for emergencies during the strict restrictions imposed to tackle the worsening situation of coronavirus, going to take effect from Wednesday.
People can obtain the pass by visiting: movementpass.police.gov.bd but it must be only for emergencies. Conditional permission will be granted for a specified period of time.
To apply for Movement Pass, one needs to visit this link, movementpass.police.gov.bd and put his or her mobile phone number to have a one-time password in the mobile phone to go through the process to get the movement pass.
Necessary information
People should enter their names, gender, age, reasons for movement, scheduled date and time for movement, NID card, information about vehicles and image.
Like, someone wants to go from Mirpur to Motijheel. He took a pass on April 15. He wants the pass for a movement on April 16.
As he mentioned, the starting time on April 16 is 2:00 pm, the return time is 5:00 pm. So, the validity of the pass is still 5:00 pm on April 16.
However, all are not allowed to have the movement pass. Only those who have emergency reasons for movement can apply for it.
Bangladesh is going to have a strict lockdown from Wednesday to tackle the worsening situation of coronavirus.
The government on Monday announced a set of restrictions to be imposed during the nationwide one-week strict lockdown from 14-21 April.
