Overloaded public buses

Buses are an integral part of urban life, but in Dhaka, overloaded public buses along with the intolerable traffic congestion have made our lives intolerable. In many roads, the number of buses is not proportional to the number of regular passengers. As a result, buses are always packed and overloaded.

It is essential for the government to take steps to identify the routes for which there is a shortage of buses and increase the number to mitigate the sufferings of the people.
