In the right, it's The Dhaka Gate, the gateway Dhaka City built during the Mughal Dynasty. I bet most of us don't even know where it is situated!
And below, it is the famous Gateway of India, known and recognized world wide.
But The Dhaka Gate was built long before the Gateway of India and is more valuable in historical terms. But look how we are savoring it.
With posters and wires!
And how Indians have kept theirs'!!
Hail Bangladeshis!!!
I took this photo of the cartoon from the "Desh TV- UNMAD Cartoon Exhibition" last year.
It seemed so true to me that time.
Can you picture Bangladesh at 2020 with anything better than this? The way we are wasting our resources and damaging the environment, it looks so perfect for us!
Now, it's time for us to decide, what do we want?
A life with an oxygen mask or even the last breath with some pure oxygen?
I am again lending from newspapers. This one is from The Star Magazine. This news is quite forgotten now. A billboard fell over a man at Gulshan and he died. But I can't still get over the horror.
I walk on the roads watching up straight, looking for any falling bill boards to hit me!
I just want to ask those house-owners that why did they gave permissions for such heavy things to stand over their buildings? For a certain amount of money? A billboard can turn the whole building down too!
Is life and a property of a life-time cheaper than only a few bucks?
In my last post on street lights, I pointed out the reason of not having lights at street.
Now, in this post, I am trying to find (!) out the reasons of lighting in the day time!
I don't know how the system runs, but I didn't find any necessity to lit street lights that time as it was only early afternoon!
Do you suggest me a good explanation for that?
Or it's another lacking of Sense and... you know!!
I have written so many things in the picture. But again, I just think we are losing our sense and sensibility everyday. We just don't pay heed to anything, ANYTHING!
It's not actually a new phenomena for the Dhaka-dwellers. Any under construction building could be found with cement, rods and other materials scattered in the adjoining road.
It's too common to even question on. Building owners and contractors behave the way that they also paid for the Government roads to use as a storage.
These materials are never put away until the whole work is done.
Passers-by now don't even curse them!
It is normal now.
Like every thing else in this "Shob-Shomvober Desh!"
All the garbage-taking pickups have these words written in them. But where is a place to dump our garbage exactly?
It had places in the past, but what about now?
Do any of you see any dust-bins anywhere?
Perhaps the whole city has become one!
