Green activists for integrated step to remove city\\\'s waterlogging
Sunday, 26 July 2015
Green activists at a programme in Dhaka Saturday demanded an integrated step to remove the perennial waterlogging problem from Dhaka city, reports UNB.
They said the city dwellers suffer from acute waterlogging in the capital in every monsoon since the authorities give attention to only addressing the problem in posh areas like Gulshan and Banani, but do not take any planned measure to remove waterlogging from all areas of the city.
Poribesh Bachao Andolon (Poba), Nagarik Odhikar Sangrakhyan Forum (NOSF) and Poribesh Unnayan Society jointly organised the human chain programme in front of Nagar Bhaban aiming to put pressure on the authorities concerned to take an integrated initiative to address waterlogging problem in Dhaka city.
