Bapa urges govt
Bangladesh Paribesh Andolon (Bapa) yesterday demanded of the government to take quick initiatives to restrict private cars on the roads of the capital to reduce traffic congestion.
Bapa in a press release, signed by its general secretary Dr Md Abdul Matin, said newspapers reported that the government would restrict movement of private cars on the streets of Dhaka and we express thanks to the government for that, says a press release.
The government should control the parking, movement and purchase of private cars to control its movement in the streets, it said.
The organisation also urged the government to take alternative measures before restricting the private cars such as importing buses on a priority basis.
