BRTA Gazipur is at the back side of vawal rajbari. Vawal rajbari is now a govt. Property and used by many govt. Offices. This is a very busy place with less parking facilities. Service is very slow forcing people to take help from dalals by providing speed money. One should go there with much time otherwise your purpose will not be fulfilled. Be careful before providing money to any Dalal.
