Padma Cantonment also Known as Sheikh Russel Cantonment[1] is a Bangladeshi military cantonment near the Padma Bridge in Munshiganj and Shariatpur Districts, Bangladesh.[2] The cantonment has been named after Sheikh Russel, younger brother of Sheikh Hasina. It has been established to ensure overall security of the bridge as it will be the main link of the highway connectivity between South Bengal and other parts of Bangladesh.[citation needed]
