Road to death trap
The capital of the public has exceeded the level of dilemma. Its victims are ordinary people. Everyday there are multiple accidents. Passengers and pedestrians are being killed in the casualties. Vehicle experts say that due to the inefficiency of the drivers and the traffic violation of the traffic law, reckless behavior, the lack of fitness of the vehicles, due to the neglect of the police and the BRTA responsible for these control, each road in the capital is now a death war. Drivers have been portrayed as the role of deathdate. After repeated counsel from experts, organizations and civil society to remove mismanagement of mass transport, strong and effective measures have been taken to solve the problem.
Why anarchy and mismanagement? In this connection, experts, transport leaders, leaders of social organizations, representatives of police and civil society have been informed about various information. In their speech, the inefficiency of the drivers, the negligence of government departments has been blamed. They also brought serious charges against almost all public transportation companies operating in the capital. In the capital, 87 percent of the bus-minibus claimed to be involved in anarchy and chaos. The BRTA and the traffic department of the police, instead of modern management, are still finishing their responsibilities in the traditional system by financing Namka. Due to the involvement of politicians with transport business, the reckless and intolerant behavior of the people of public transport has become a curse for the common people today. General passengers blamed the police and BRTA officials for not being punished by the drivers due to the accident and driving the vehicles without traffic.
According to the BUET Accident Research Institute (MRI), the number of people in the capital and the number of vehicles is high. The roads in this city of less than two crore people are fewer and the drivers are also inefficiently unstable. The accident rate is also higher. There is a need for 25 percent of the city's roads. But there are only 7 percent of the roads in the road. More than half of the roads in the capital are identified as accidents. These risks are happening on the horizontal road accident.
If you want to know about the reasons for the displacement of mass transport in the capital, then the transport expert and professor of BUET. Moazzem Hossain said transport owners and workers are becoming desperate day by day. The police could not bring them under control. To regulate this situation, arrangements will be made to bring the public transport under control to form a strong organization right now. On the way to the road, stop the passengers and stop overtrecking. Passengers must also take initiative to raise awareness.
Ilias Kanchon has been running a movement for safe road across the country for a long time. Regarding the public unrest, he said that more than 28 percent of accidents have increased since last year. The driver's instability and reckless behavior is responsible for this. Looking back a little behind, it is seen that many drivers have been punished for the casualties and casualties. It is very sad. The government will have to take stringent measures to protect public transport from anarchy.
The leaders of the transport organization have explained the reason for the disenchantment of mass transport. They said that none of the public transport operators were the monthly salary paid to the owner. If you want the driver to drive, you can run it again. The drivers took the bus or minibus away from the owner in agreement to deposit the specified amount every day. In the meantime, after dividing the money, the drivers divided the three, including the helper and the contractor. On this, the streets have to be paid in the name of the association and the police. For these reasons, the drivers are in the race for more income from start to finish. Overtaking, crossing the car, obstructing traffic, ignoring the signal and stopping the vehicle in the middle of the street, the tendency to fluctuate is noticed. Due to the competition the accident is happening more. Bus or minibus owners pay agreement based on the financial loss side. The owner of a driver will be able to pick up the car, it is the owner's own business. There is no hand of transport organization or police here. Because of this, the owners have always tried to save the driver after the accident.
Dhaka Road Transport Association Secretary General Khandaker Enayet Ulha said that the drivers had ill competitions. The drivers are uneducated. They lack their skills. He said, we are trying to increase the efficiency of the drivers. If the educated unemployed people did not sit in this profession then the situation would have improved. In order to overcome this crisis, some companies will have to bring public transport under control.
DTCA's former executive director and public transport expert Dr. SM Saleh Uddin Ahmed said that under the leadership of the late mayor Anisul Haq, he has done anarchy and mismanagement of the public. Then submitted the specific plans to the government. If the plan is implemented, the chaos will decrease in a little bit.
According to statistics from the Bangladesh Road Transport Authority (BRTA), there are 20 types of vehicles registered in the country of 33 lakh 82 thousand and 247 vehicles. In contrast, 24 lakh 58 thousand 852 driving licenses have been issued. From this difference, there are 9 lakh 23,335 registered drivers of the vehicle. But even after the licenses, these drivers are driving a car with public transport.
On the other hand, according to information provided by Bangladesh Passenger Welfare Association, there are now 10 lakh unauthorized vehicles in the country. There are 5 lakh CNG auto-rickshaws. According to the information provided by the Bangladesh Passenger Welfare Association, 64 people were killed and more than 150 passengers were injured in road accidents across the country. About 72 percent of the road traffic is running without fitness. Bangladesh Jatiya Kalyan Samity Secretary General Mozammel Haque Chowdhury said that Chaukari mainly controls the bus minibus business. This is why the sick competition among the drivers is. Who died and who did not see the drivers when they were alive. That is why anarchy in the transport sector is underway.
On 21 April, in the National Press Club, complaints were made in a Round Table Conference on 'The way to overcome anarchy and mismanagement on the road', despite traffic accidents, Traffic Police, instead of bringing discipline into the transport sector, involved in financing, extortion, route permit trade and tokensabaji. In the political context, the people of the government are extorting hundreds of crores of rupees through extortion in the transport sector. Because of this, an increase in the transport sector and the woes of the passengers increased. On behalf of the Association, 10 recommendations were made to remove anarchy.
