Begunbari tragedy
The recent incident of Begunnbari has shocked us all. It again proved that we are living in the unsafe concrete jungle. Rajuk is the top decision-making body which permits any owner to construct buildings in the DCC area. People are now claiming that this organisation doesn't carry out their responsibilities correctly.
Human rights activists should raise their voice to ensure safety of people's life. The government should come forward and take effective measures to prevent such accidents in future. Rajuk should play its role by investigating the plans and specifications correctly. Any unauthorised construction should be stopped to avoid accidents. Violators of the BNBC should be brought to justice and given exemplary punishment.
The ministry concerned should take proper steps in this regard.
