Read the following passage and answer the questions:
Maitree, the direct Dhaka-Kolkata train service, seems costly to run as it has not got enough popularity among the people who travel on this route. The train does not get even a hundred passengers on board in a trip. Ten months have gone since the train service began running in April last year, but it does not see any improvement in terms of passenger flow. The business information, received from customs and immigration sources, however, make it clear that the train has been running on tax-payers’ money as it does not generate enough revenue to meet the running costs. The train until February 22 carried 19,759 passengers. Among them, the number of Bangladeshi passengers was 17,168, Indian 2,200, and other nationalities 391. The customs authorities have received more than Tk 10 lakh revenue for this period when the amount of travel tax paid by the Bangladeshi passengers was about Tk 60 lakh. The BR was unable to give a figure of its earnings from the proceeds of tickets but it was understood that the amount was not enough to prove the train service a potential business. Traveling by this train costs a passenger from $8 to $20, depending on which class the passenger is availing. The income cannot be more than Tk 2.68 crore even if all the passengers who traveled by this train had paid the highest fare. The income from this train is much lower than its running cost. Unfortunately the BR and eventually the country’s taxpayers are paying for 75 per cent of the loss.
