Kandirpar-Ranirbazar road causing sufferings to pedestrians, urgent steps needed

Zakir Azad , Cumilla

When it rains, the Kandirpar-Ranirabazar road in Cumilla city gets submerged in water. When submerged in water, there is no way to understand the road, whether it is a sinkhole or a road.

As a result, thousands of pedestrians, vehicle passengers and drivers who use this road have to suffer. Businessmen are affected. Local residents, pedestrians and drivers said that they have to bear this suffering as there is no drainage system to remove the water. The road from Kandirpar Nazrul Avenue to the trauma center is almost knee deep.

The bricks have melted and mixed with water in small holes. From Bagichagaon through Ranirbazar to station road intersection, water has accumulated at various places. Due to potholes and knee-deep water, battery-operated auto-rickshaws, CNG-operated auto-rickshaws, etc. are causing problems. If there is water on the road, there is a decline in business in the shops on both sides.

There is no sale. Water inside some shops too. Shopkeepers are sitting in the water. There is garbage along the road. The water has risen and garbage has been scattered across the road. As the water rises, the waste from the useless drains also comes up with the water. People of various classes and professions including students have suffered. Four businessmen of Nazrul Avenue area said that when it rains, the Kandirpar-Dharmapur road gets submerged in water. People cannot walk. Due to this, we have to count losses in our business. Where roads and walkways are sunken, kirs are sold.

There is a drain on the south side of Nazrul Avenue. It is closed. The water of this road was removed through that drain. Because of the slab above the drain, people could walk behind the market even if there was water on the road. But that road is occupied now.

A small rice hotel on this road belongs to Manwara Begum. He said that when it rains, water accumulates inside and outside his hotel. Selling cannot be done in water. If it rains for several days, the hotel has to be closed. He is in trouble. Pedestrians Abdul Latif and Mainul Islam said that thousands of people are traveling through the road every day suffering. But Cumilla City Corporation has no role in this road.

The rain comes and goes. But the water on the road does not move. Poor condition of drains. This road is very important for us. Cumilla Victoria Government College, Cumilla Law College, Cumilla Modern Primary School and Modern High School, Farida Vidyayatan, RR International School, Rani Bazar, Railway Station and Sassongacha Bus Terminal.

Auto driver md. Khokon Mia said, our car is getting damaged a lot. Sometimes bearings, sometimes hinges become useless. Passengers get scared when they get into the car. Cumilla Victoria Government College eleventh grade students. Naeem said, I live in Ashoktala and I have to pass this road to go to college. If there is a lot of water on the road, the dress gets wet and gets ruined. Can't walk.

Executive Engineer of Cumilla City Corporation. Abu Sayem Bhunya said, the contractor has completed a part of the road work. He is being called again and again to finish the remaining part. He is not working. If Monday-Tuesday doesn't work, we'll make another arrangement on Wednesday and I heard that the drain is occupied on the south side of Nazrul Avenue.

The campaign is now closed. We will conduct an operation in a few months to clear the encroachment of the drain.
