Card-phone sufferings


In Dhaka we have only a few card-phone booths. Unfortunately most of them are out of order. There are two types of phone-booths in the city. In the old ones you have to try many times before you know that it is out of order. Thank god, in the new phone-booths you do not face such problem.

In the Kamalapur railway station there are ten card-phone booths. Among them six are old and four are new. Among the six old booths, at least four are completely dead and the other two are half-dead. Three of the new phone booths are also out of order. No point in mentioning the condition inside the phone-booths. You can guess that. The condition of BRTC bus terminal phone-booths are the same. We, the card-phone users, are requesting the authority concerned to take necessary steps to make the phone-booths useable.
