Dhaka, the capital of Bangladesh, well known as city of fine muslin, mosques and rickshaws has a fairly long history of evolution. Before it rose into prominence as Mughal capital of Bengal in 17th century and urban & commercial centre, it was under the Sultanates from 14 century. It came under British control in 1757. Dhaka with passage of time testify different faces of history. Photographs and digital archives are the most effective ways that can keep visual records of its colourful history.

ReplyDeletenew road from Sonargaon to Rampura!!
Interesting!! What's your personal opinion about this? How helpful will this be?
Dhaka city needs at least 5 trunk roads each in E-W and N-S direction. While there are 3 in the N-S direction, there is none on E-W. As a result all traffic have to travel along the N-S trunk roads for quite long wherever one likes to go causing jam for hours. One has also to bear in mind that train line passing through the centre of town stops movement of traffic more than 38 times or more in each crossing.
