Dear
Rima,
I
received your letter yesterday. You wanted to know many things about our
friends in Dhaka. Dhaka is the capital of Bangladesh. Once it was the capital
of undivided Bengal in period emperor Jahangir. It stands on the Buriganga. I
know, you visited Dhaka about ten years ago. If you come here now, you will see
a lot of changes here.
Many
roads and ways have been constructed here. Many large and tall buildings have
been built but many tanks and ponds that you saw in the heart of city have
disappeared. Many installations have been made on the lakes and ponds. As a
result, the beauty of the capital is no more seen here. Thousands of buses,
minibuses, trucks and other kinds of vehicles run in the streets and pollute
the air.
The
horns of these vehicles also cause sound pollution. There are many large
factories and industries which pollute water and air throwing poisonous
chemicals and waste products. Human wastes and bad drainage system contaminate
water regularly. Fishes are not found now in the Buriganga. People in Dhaka city
are attacked with fatal diseases.
All
these are the consequences of rapid growth of population. No more today.
Sincerely
yours,
Sima
