Dhaka South administrator pledges to regulate rickshaws

Dhaka South City Corporation Administrator Mohammad Abdus
Salam has said the administration will try to bring rickshaws under a
regulatory framework, something previous administrations had failed to do.
Efforts
are underway to bring street hawkers in the capital under discipline, he
mentioned while speaking as the chief guest at a memorial held at the National
Press Club today (13 May) to mark the 11th death anniversary of BNP leader
Nasiruddin Ahmed Pintu.
Abdus
Salam said various problems in the capital have increased since 5 August 2024,
adding that there was a lack of proper oversight during the interim
government's tenure.
He also claimed that child deaths are occurring due to failure in procuring
measles vaccines.
Recalling
Pintu's political life and contributions, Abdus Salam said he never compromised
with injustice and never bowed his head. "Nasiruddin Pintu was a burning
symbol of struggle and movement."
He
added that not only Lalbagh, Chawkbazar or Kamrangirchar, but nationalist
forces across Bangladesh remember him with respect today.
"He
was killed through conspiracy and justice for this killing will be delivered on
the soil of Bangladesh," the Dhaka South administrator said.
