Ans: Water Logging in Full Swing in Dhaka City
Staff Correspondent
Water logging in different parts of Dhaka city remains very acute. Each
and every year city-dwellers face the same scenario. At present it has
taken a serious turn. The sufferings of the common mass beggar
description. Ignoring the rules formulated by RAJUK, recalcitrants have
continued to build commercial and residential infrastructure in an
unplanned way blocking the sewerage line. Corrugated roads too are
not repaired. During rainy days people are forced to walk through knee-
deep water. The vehicles cannot run smoothly. As a result, massive
traffic gridlock paralyses commuting and transportation. Particularly at
Malibagh, Shantinagar and Fakirapol, the situation is terrible. The
concerned authority has been requested so many times to solve the
problem, but in vain. City-dwellers are thus helplessly bearing the brunt
of the ever familiar torment at the expense of their valuable time,
money and efforts.
