Road grabbers!
In most of the residential areas of Dhaka, a portion of the road is grabbed by the unscrupulous house owners. And perhaps Mohammadpur is the worst affected. The house owners while building their houses grab a couple of feet from the government road. Unfortunately, none is there to see it and this unlawful activity hugely contributes to the traffic jam. But if government wants, they can bulldoze these illegal structures just by one week and get the roads back to the original size. This has been possible in Mirpur recently prior to the world cup and the scenario is totally different now. Let's free all illegally grabbed areas for a better Dhaka!
