Threat by the Rickshaw-Van pullers!
I have been writing to this newspaper for years to influence our thoughts towards the danger of rickshaws. We did not pay proper attention to this epidemic of a problem sooner. Now perhaps, it is almost out of control. Rickshaws must be controlled immediately before the pullers/owners threat and force everyone in this country to ride rickshaws.
I was shocked to hear one 'leader' of some “rickshaw-van malik kollan…” organization, utter in arrogance that they will not allow any private car to roam Dhaka streets after April 15 unless all roads are made open to rickshaws. I am sure that is not going to happen. But I am also not very unsure that rickshaw pullers will stop creating lawlessness as usual. We must come up with alternative to rickshaws as quickly as we can, or else, rickshaws will literally eat us all up. Scary!
