Population of Dhaka


The news on the size of population in our neighbouring city Kolkata has drawn my attention. According to a recent survey, it has been revealed that the net population is decreasing there. New people come to Kolkata but many of them prefer to live not in the city but in places near to it.

Now think of Dhaka. It is a megacity and two crore people will live here by 2020 if we fail to do anything about the problem.
