The traffic division fined seven motorcycle riders Tk 21,000 on Friday morning for not following rules while crossing the Padma Bridge .

Munshiganj Traffic Inspector Bazlur Rahman said seven bikers violated the rules by changing from the designated lanes for motorcycles and entering the main lanes.

They were stopped at the Jazira end and fined a total of Tk 21,000, with each being fined Tk 3,000, he added.

Meanwhile, motorcycles have started plying the Padma Bridge from 6 am Thursday ahead of the holy Eid-ul-Fitr as the government permitted bikes temporarily on six conditions after about nine and a half months.

On Thursday Road Transport and Bridges Minister Obaidul Quader had warned the bikers that if they violate the rules bikes may be banned from plying the bridge again.
