The lack of streetlights in Chittagong

Some streets in Chittagong are not equipped with the adequate number of streetlights. Those streets assume an eerie appearance after the evening. Not all the city roads have neon lights. Occasionally, the fluorescent tube lights, meant to use at home, are used as a pathetic substitute. Muggers and other criminals can take advantage of the situation. 

There are are some open manholes and lost slabs on the pavements that cannot be noticed due to the lack of lights on the streets exposing pedestrians to accidents. We hope the authority will take measures to install more lights on the city streets.
