Housing plots choking the city's lifeline

A property developer has built this building named Titanic Housing on the Buriganga at Waaspur. The authorities tried several times to demolish it but the claimant produced a court order to turn away the bulldozers. Plans are underway to fill up the entire area of the river for setting up housing plots choking the city's lifeline -- the Buriganga. Photo: SK Enamul Haq
