"A truck carrying sand overturned in the Kuril area. It took some time to remove the truck from the road, therefore movement towards Banani is going at a slow pace," Mostafizur Rahman, assistant commissioner of Dhaka Metropolitan Police Gulshan told The Business Standard. 

Meanwhile, there has also been a long long tailback on the Dhaka-Chattogram highway.
