Why block roads?
I do agree with the view expressed by Kabir Hossain Taposh on 24th May in your column. Traffic jam is one of the most serious problems of Dhaka. But our government and other political parties are not paying any heed to this problem. Rather they continue to hold political programmes on the road.
Shahbag, one of the busiest intersections in the capital, had been blocked for nearly two months. Those who live in the capital know very well how much people had to suffer due to the blockage of the road and how much traffic jam was created on other roads as a consequence. Political and other programmes can be held in parks and open spaces in the capital. I think political parties should adopt other means to raise their voices instead of blocking roads.
