Home Minister Asaduzzaman Khan Kamal officially inaugurated Benapole e-passport.

A. zalil, Staff Reporter:-

Benapole, the country’s largest land port of Jessore, has been connected with the latest technology in the world. Electronic gates or e-gates have been installed for e-passport holders. On Saturday 4/3/23, these gates were officially inaugurated by Home Minister Asaduzzaman Khan. Kamal Earlier, where one had to suffer for hours to complete the immigration, now citizens with e-passport can travel between the two countries after completing the immigration process in just 18 seconds. As a result, they are happy to complete immigration easily using e-passport as they do not have to suffer in long queues. It is known that at these electronic gates, first the page containing the photo, information and barcode of the e-passport holder will be scanned and the information will be verified through artificial intelligence. If all goes well, the first step of the gate will open. After that, the second gate will be opened only if the face of the passenger is matched with the passport photo through the second step direct detection camera. And if the server and system are all right then the immigration of a passenger will be completed in maximum 18 seconds. According to the Benapole immigration sources, during normal times five to seven thousand people are traveling between Bangladesh and India through the Benapole land port through passport. This number doubles during Eid and Puja. Passengers have to stand in long queues to check documents at immigration. This increases passenger suffering. The broker gang extorts money from the passengers by promising to facilitate the immigration process first without standing in the queue. Passengers are subjected to fraud and harassment. Four e-gates have been installed at Benapole land port to facilitate and secure passenger services. Two of these will be used for returning from India and two for entering India from Bangladesh. In this regard, Moniruzzaman, who passed through E Gate, said, “Since 2001, I have been traveling between India and Bangladesh through Benapole port. This is the first time it took less than a minute to complete the passport data verification process through eGate. But it took 5 to 7 minutes to stamp the visa as before. If there is a crowd, it takes half an hour to an hour to stand in line. After the opening of E-Gate in the afternoon, the gate was opened for E-passport holders. Then one by one numerous passengers crossed the gate by showing e-passport at the gate. Later they went to the counter for visa verification. From there, the passport is sealed in the book. In the opening speech of e-gate, Home Minister Asaduzzaman Khan said about the complexity of visa verification, not only e-passport is e-gate; We are also leaving on e-visa. From handwritten Bangladesh passport to MRP and then to e-passport, we are now moving towards smart Bangladesh. Home Minister Asaduzzaman Khan also said, Prime Minister’s election announcement was to build a digital Bangladesh. As part of building that digital Bangladesh, e-passport is in everyone’s hand today. At this point we left the handwritten passports and traveled to MRPO. Now I have gone to e-passport with the hand of Sheikh Hasina. Which has cooperated with the world’s renowned company Zamarni. State Minister for Local Government Swapan Bhattacharya, President of the Parliamentary Standing Committee on Home Ministry Benazir Ahmed MP, Senior Secretary of Public Security Department of Home Ministry Aminul Islam Khan and DIG of Khulna Range Mainul Haque were also present on the occasion. Sharsha Member of Parliament Alhaj Md. Sheikh Afil Uddin Jessore was also present at the event. – Member of Parliament for 2 constituencies, Major General (Retired) Doctor Md. Nasir Uddin, Member of Parliament for Jessore-3 Constituency Shaheen Chakladar, Member of Parliament for Jessore-5 Constituency, Abdullah Al Mamun Chowdhury, Secretary of Security Services Department of Ministry of Home Affairs, Director General of Immigration and Passport Department Major General Nurul Anwar, District Awami League President Shahidul Islam Milon and other invited guests. . Passengers said that due to the introduction of e-services, there is no longer the problem of standing in long queues to verify passport information. They can complete the immigration process quickly. Officer-in-Charge (OC) of Immigration Police Benapole, Ahsan Habib, said that the personnel have already been trained to conduct this program. With the introduction of this service, the immigration process of passengers is completed within 18 seconds. By touching the e-passport to the designated area of the gate and giving a fingerprint, the gate will open automatically. It will make traffic safer. Human suffering will be reduced. Civil services will be easier. According to the sources of the Directorate of Immigration and Passport, the e-passport program has started in the country from January 18, 2020. During this period, 1 lakh 70 thousand people have come under the e-passport from the Jessore office of the Directorate of Immigration and Passports. Most of the people of the country have not yet come under the e-passport. That is why the manual method service will also be active along with the e-gate service. In response to the question of how much time it will take for all passport holders of the country to come under the e-passport, Mehdi Hasan Qutub, deputy director of the Jessore regional office of the Directorate of Immigration and Passports, said, “Currently, the e-passport program has been started in all district passport offices in the country.” It will take time for all passport holders to come under e-passport. Now everyone is being given e-passport. sender, Azalil
