Ctg's decrepit buses
Every day I have to travel to the southern parts of Chittagong. The buses which we use are local buses-- rundown vehicles that somehow hurtle to the destination. As it is the rainy season it often rains in the morning. When it rains, the window at the front of the bus looks hazy. In most cases, the windshield wipers of the local buses do not work. As a result, we can hardly make out the vehicles that are coming from the opposite direction. How does the driver finds his way is a matter of speculation. Needless to say, riding in those buses isa risky business.
We hope that the traffic department will look into the matter and take prompt action.
