Graveyard for apartment complexes

Graveyard for apartment complexes

Dhaka city has grown from a town into a mega city in course of time. Mega malls, broad roads, flyovers etc. are being built to ease public life. But unfortunately, we don't have graveyards. Government-sponsored residential projects such as Purbachal, Jhilmil etc. have no provision for setting up graveyards in the area for the residents. Developers like Bashundhara and others also have no provision for graveyards.
The government should make it mandatory for all developers to keep sufficient space for graveyards, which could be sold in advance to plot owners (as first priority) and flat owners (as second priority).
