Making Farmgate area beautiful


Farmgate is the junction of many of the areas of Dhaka city. So the sight of this place should always be nice, beautiful and attractive. But it is a matter of great regret that we are not getting the said area in the above manner due to the presence of unauthorised sellers of different commodities and the bare richshaws that we find standing in front of Ananda Cinema Hall. They are covering 5 to 10 feet of the main road, causing great difficulties to the pedestrians. Not only that, the footpath of Farmgate area is also captured by them. All of these are creating complications for all levels of people in doing their day to day work. So drastic measures should be taken by the authorities against them in order to enhance the public facility which is the main target of the government. If the unauthorised sellers are fully uprooted from this area the total beauty of the area will increase to a great extent. Empty rickshaws that stand in front of Ananda Cinema Hall create traffic jam and as a result the private cars and buses have to waste a minimum of 20 to 30 minutes at this point. So appropriate measures should be taken immediately so that the rickshaws cannot stand in the said place. Only this way the traffic jam of this area can be removed.
