Jessore to Kushtia Distance
Bangladesh Roads and Highways Department road data provides a useful official reference for the distance.
On the Jessore (Rajarhat)–Monirampur–Keshabpur–Chuknagar Road, an RHD kilometer post near the Rajarhat starting area displays:
Kushtia — 100 km
That makes approximately 100 km a useful official road-distance reference from the Jashore Rajarhat area.
Your actual distance can be slightly different depending on:
- where in Jashore you start;
- where in Kushtia you need to go;
- the exact road used;
- local diversions or access roads.
The older version of this article used approximately 115 km as a general driving distance. The current guide uses the RHD kilometer-post reference instead of presenting an unsupported map estimate as a fixed official distance.
