Why these nondescript names?
Newaz Noor-ul Wahab, Sylhet
Steps taken by the present caretaker taker government are being highly appreciated by all sections of people . I would suggest that the authorities remove the names of nondescript individuals from the installations which were set up with public money. There must be some laid down rules on what grounds a nameplate can be placed. To gain or highlight an individual's name and fame through spending public money is totally unacceptable and never practiced in any civilised society. If all such nameplates' total cost is accounted, we could possibly make an important bridge on a river.We appreciate to see places or roads named as Nazrul Academy, Sir Salimullah Road, Sheikh Mujib Road, Suhrawardy Uddayan, Rabindra Sadan etc in order to uphold history and contributions that an individual made to the nation. A donor who contributed land and full cost of constructing a building for a school, hospital from his personal source of income will have legitimate grounds for having it named after him. But the rules should be clear.
