Problems grip Bajitpur

From Our Correspondent
KISHOREGANJ. Apr 29 : The inhabitants of Bajitpur poura area have been facing
' . a host of problems which include deplorable condition of roads, inadequate street lights, absence of proper drainage system, shortage of accommodation. lack of proper sanitary arrangement, mosquito menace. frequent power failure and absence of recreational facilities and housing.
The town in being expanded with the increase of population but the poura authority fails to provide with minimum civic facilities to the town dwellers.
Most roads In the pourashava area are narrow and uneven. Cracks and pot holes have developed at many Clnts. Even after slight rain-
I these roads become muddy and slippery, rainwater remains stagnant on the roads causing difficulties to both pedestrians and vehicular traffic. Moreover the road side ditches remain filled with filths and garbages are not cleaned regularly which has
gradually turned into the mosquito breeding centres.
Absence of proper drainage system is another problem for the people of the town. Rainwater accumulates and remain stagnant on the roads causing serious health hazard to the inhabitants.
Most of the street lights In the poura area have no bulbs. As a result, the areas plunge into darkness Just after sunset giving rise to anti-social activities.
Acute shortage of houses poses a great problem to the people. New houses are not constructed in proportion with the increasing number of people.
The pitiable condition of the ordinary hotels and restaurants is dangerous for the public health. Adulterated foodstuffs are freely sold In open places of the pourashava area which Is not checked by the poura authority.
There is no recreational fa cllities for children or elderly
people except a cinema hall.
Conservancy service
The conservancy service of the poura area is not satisfactory. There is no public latrines or urinals in the town. Most roads are dirty and full of garbages. There is no arrangement to clean the roads regularly.
Waiting sheds
Absence of Walting sheds at the bus stands cause much inconvenience to the travellers. The bus stands have no latrines and urinals. During rainy season the bus stands turn Into water pools after slight rainfall.
Mosquito menace in the town area has assumed an alarming proportion causing untold sufferings to the town dwellers.
The pourashava authority, however, seems to have turned into a deaf ear to the public demand for immediate solution to these problems though they are taking taxes tn enhanced rate every year from the tax payers.
