Incomplete bridge, immeasurable suffering
Thousands have been suffering for years as the construction of Kalia bridge over the Nabaganga river in Narail is yet to be completed.
Turning into a ghost town
As soon as one enters the first gate of Platinum Jute Mill Workers Colony next to Khulna’s BIDC road, they can see rows of empty two-storey buildings, overgrown with careless neglect.
Dilapidated for 11 years
About 5.5 kilometres of Sonadanga-Mujgunni highway, one of the busiest roads in Khulna city, is increasingly becoming unusable for commuters, as it has remained unrepaired for the last 11 years.
‘We want our land, not compensation’
In the pretext of increasing navigability and capacity, the Mongla Port authorities are dredging the Pashur River.
Khulna, Jashore: Over half of level crossings unprotected
Over half of the level crossings at different regions of Khulna and Jashore don’t have a gateman. Some of these crossings are registered under the ministry, while others remain unregistered.
Padma Bridge opens door to opportunities
The dream of establishing road connectivity between the southwestern part of Bangladesh and the capital city came true after the opening of long-waited Padma Bridge in June.
Khulna footpaths for vendors, not pedestrians
It seems footpaths are not meant for pedestrians to use, rather it’s a place for hawkers and vendors to conduct their business in the Khulna city lately.
No rides in a children’s park?
Golakmoni Shishu Park, one of Khulna city’s entertainment centres, hardly lives up to its name. Although it’s called a “Shishu Park”, there are no facilities for children to play. However, this park, established on 64 decimals of land in 1984 at the heart of Khulna city, could’ve served as a great entertainment hub for children as well as residents of the city.

An understatement of damages?
Victims of the Narail mayhem alleged that the actual picture of the damage to Hindu households, shops and properties was not reflected in police’s case statement as they deem it to be much higher.

Cops dilly-dallying with arrests
Many attackers of the Narail mayhem have already been identified through video footage. They are still roaming around the village but police did not arrest them, alleged the victims.
Processing, please wait....
