Mobile Tower is a Great Threat in Bangladesh

Mobile tower is a great threat for Public Health in Bangladesh.

Mobile tower is a great threat for Bangladeshi people. Specially in city area it is a great concern for public health . Due to great demand of mobile phone in BD various mobile operator have built up their network through antenna all over the country.

Grameen Phone, Bangla Link, Rabi, City cell, Warid , Tele Talk, Airtel are major mobile carriers in Bangladesh . All of those companies have set up their mobile antenna over the roof of houses or institutions without considering the minimum distance from the people's living area.

They never followed the international strategy to do it. In developed countries it is established by keeping minimum distance from the residential area. but in BD specially in Dhaka city no operator cared this important and sensitive point.

From the tower electro magnetic wave is coming out continuously which body effect on public health. It can be cause of cancer, heart diseases , high per tension, headache or an other diseases. The symptoms of those diseases can be appeared after 10-20 years later.

Mobile tower should be established at the minimum height from the ground usually it starts from 40Th floor but in BD most towers has been established from 4Th or fifth floor. Although It is prohibited in residential and educational institute but most of the cell phone carrier did not respect this common law for build up mobile tower.

Now it is time for the Mobile operator to shift their antenna from the dangerous level of public health. Government should force them to shift their mobile tower. Those wireless carrier should compensate the victims who are already affected from radiation of mobile tower. In this regard govt. should come ahead to punish those operator who has showed negligence in this important and sensitive factor.

All of the mobile operators always think their own profit they never consider the welfare of common people. In this regard government is the main representative for common people. So, we will request the respective govt authority to take proper survey of this issue. They should not be corrupted by mobile operators to do this sensitive job accurately.

Ricksha in Dhaka City

Ricksha is the very common  and most used vehicle in Dhaka. Dhaka is the oldest city among other cities in the world. Once it was a city of peace but now it is a curse to many of us. People are worry to walk on the street of Dhaka.

New Terror has been developing rapidly in Dhaka city.
Dhaka is the capital city of Bangladesh. Though there is no accurate census about Dhaka city but it is assumed that more than 12 million people have been living in this mega city. People have been facing different problems to live here. People are worry to walk in the street, ride on  vehicle and bringing  belongings with them in the dhaka street.


Dhaka is one of the busiest city among other cities in Bangladesh. Many incidents are occurring almost everyday and night in the city. I could not believe or imagine that it can be happened in my own life. But unfortunately it happened.

Yesterday night(12.07.2010) I was bringing a suck of rice and few jack-fruits from my village house. When I arrived at sayedabad crossing moor, then unexpected incident was occurred. I was traveling by rickshaw. Suddenly the rickshaw puller told me to get down from his rickshaw due to some problem of his rickshaw's break.

To respond his request I followed him and pushing the rickshaw to reach nearby rickshaw garage. At that time suddenly a man came from opposite site, he pushed me, stopped me and started to talk with me, in the meantime the rickshaw-puller ran away to another direction. I searched around the place for long time but I could not found the rickshaw again. So, finally I lost my belonging.

Fantastic and amazing incident really. My younger son was awaiting for eating jack-fruit but unfortunately I could not met his demand at that night. I had to returned home in empty hand and with shamed face.

I requested many traffic surgeons at the point but nobody could help me. The traffic surgeon told me to go to nearby Demra police station and inform it there. But it is already too late. I went to the police station but I could not get any quick action.

More fantastic is that, though Sayadabad chowrasta is a crowded point and a lot of people are always there but at the critical moment nobody helped me to catch the rickshaw puller to recover my belonging. I shocked myself and tried to convinced to be calm.

As a conscious citizen it is my responsibility to let you know this incident. Like me do not become a fool in the street of capital city. Do not lose your valuable belongings from rickshaw. Keep it in your mind that Dhaka is a cheating city right now. Any time you can fall into cheating trap.

I understood that night, that there is a criminal group in Sayadabad and Zatrabari  area. The snatching group has chosen the rickshaw puller as member of their terrorist group. This is their new method of snatching and cheating in the street of Dhaka.

Before ride on CNG, Micro and taxi you abode extra cautions but now you are in great danger from rickshaw-puller too. Any time you can be cheated from rickshaw-puller. So,before ride on rickshaw put down the rickshaw's number. Try to avoid bringing anything by rickshaw at night lonely. Do not bring valuable thing or enough money with you too in rickshaw journey.

Though it is hard that police are good friend of common people but in practical field it is not found. It is our great frustration and agony that we are living in this kind of city. Our life is not safe here. We are worry to walk and ride on rickshaw, taxi or CNG. When will we get free from this kind of anxiety in the street of Dhaka?

I already registered a GD in Damara police station. which number is- 948 dated-13/07/2010. But still now police could not recovered my lost belonging from rickshaw.

Police has good idea about snatcher, terrorist, or cheater on all important points in the streets of Dhaka. But it is our frustration that police do not arrest or they do not help victims to get back their lost items from vehicle.

As a Dhaka dwellers we want safe and free street in Dhaka city. But who will assure us about this? It is our fundamental rights to get safe street in Dhaka. In this regard I am asking all respecting department of Bangladesh Government to take immediate action to stop this kind of newly growing up cheating and snatching group from Dhaka.
