DHAKA: Bangladesh has <\/span>granted<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>permission<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>to Fly Jinnah<\/a>, a private airline, to\u00a0<\/span>operate<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>direct flights between Karachi and Dhaka. This <\/span>marks\u00a0<\/span>the resumption of air travel between the two cities after almost a decade.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Air Vice Marshal Md Monjur Kabir Bhuiyan, Chairman of\u00a0<\/span>the Civil Aviation Authority of Bangladesh<\/a> (CAAB)<\/span>,\u00a0<\/span>confirmed that Fly Jinnah had applied for approval and it had been granted.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Following<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>the\u00a0<\/span>appointment<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>of<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>a local General Sales Agent<\/a> (GSA)\u00a0<\/span>by the airline\u00a0<\/span>in Bangladesh, slots and frequencies would be given.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span>This<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>has<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>opened<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>up<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>a<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>pathway<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>for this development, which is the next significant stride towards enhancing bilateral relations <\/span>between\u00a0<\/span>Bangladesh<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>and<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>Pakistan<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Relations between Bangladesh and Pakistan\u00a0<\/span>became<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>strained\u00a0<\/span>because<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>of<\/span>\u00a0the close ties between the former Bangladeshi Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina’s government and India. <\/span><\/p>\n

However, since\u00a0<\/span>she<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>was<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>unseated\u00a0<\/span>last year, the interim leader Muhammad Yunus has been\u00a0<\/span>making<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>amends<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>with Pakistan. In December last year, Yunus met with Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif in Egypt and\u00a0<\/span>declared<\/span>\u00a0that both countries\u00a0<\/span>agreed to\u00a0<\/span>expand<\/span>\u00a0their bilateral\u00a0<\/span>relations<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span>It<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>has<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>been a result\u00a0<\/span>of\u00a0<\/span>these efforts that\u00a0<\/span>direct flights between Karachi and Dhaka\u00a0<\/span>have<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>resumed<\/span>, and it is\u00a0<\/span>anticipated<\/span>\u00a0to boost trade, tourism, and people-to-people contact between the two countries.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
