High Court's directives
Road accident is a very common phenomenon in our country. Mozammel Hossain, a freedom fighter, journalist and playwright, lost his life in a road crash, leaving his wife and children behind.
His wife filed a case claiming compensation against the owner of the vehicle. The Hon'ble High Court, after hearing both parties, not only awarded compensation to the deceased's family but also directed suggestions to the government.
The High Court suggests, among many other things that only punishing the wrong doers do not at all bring any fruitful result.
The government should not issue driving license to anybody who has no education or basic qualification to be a driver, but to a person who has at least some education, as education makes a man a bit responsible.
Now it is the duty of the government to show respect to the suggestions of the High Court and take necessary measures accordingly.
