Introduce BRTC bus
The distance between Jurain to Motijheel via Doyaganj is a little over 4 kilometres but the bus fair is very high-- Tk 8. In return what we get is immeasurable sufferings. The bus companies don't care about the sufferings of the passengers at all. Half the passengers commute standing. They conduct the bus service with so few buses that in rush hours hundreds of people stand in queue . There were two companies in the route but in the middle of the month of Ramadan a company named Rangdhanu stopped its service. It just increases the crisis beyond tolerance level. Almost all the buses are quite unfit to move within Dhaka. Most of the seats are broken. In some buses you can't find benches at all.
Over half a million people live in the area of Jurain, Postogola, Shyampur, Kadamtali, Muradpur, Gendaria & Doalirpar. So if the government provides BRTC bus service from Jurain to Farmgate, Mirpur, Mohammadpur or Mohakhali via Motijheel, it will greatly reduce the sufferings of the people here. It will be highly profitable too.
