Aarong has organised a month long Jamdani exhibition called "Story of Pride" at Shilpakala Academy. Jamdani is one of the very few fine textiles and heritage that has been around throughout the century and still holds the same significance that it had during the great Mughals.

DHAKA has paid its tribute to martyred intellectuals, the glorious sons and daughters of the soil. This day reminds us of cruelty of war and true face of fascist Pakistani authority and their sidekicks. This heart wrenching pain of our national loss is not comprehensible neither can it be compensated for. Dhaka has seen countless deaths, destruction and misery during the war in 1971.

Dhaka city has lots of bright sides as well as some really intolerable features. Traffic Jam is the single most kill joy in the city that is virtually crippling peoples mobility and as a result, millions of working hours are being lost in commuting in Dhaka. It has been happening for years and sadly on everyday basis.

It's no more a news that Dhaka is a polluted city and it has become almost inhabitable. Dwellers of Dhaka city have been living here dangerously for years now, risking themselves and their off-springs lives. But if Dhaka city's Structure Plan 1995-2015 Policy 10 and 11 are implemented then there will be more open spaces throughout the city and it can significantly reduce level of pollution in the city. A study has shown that suspended particulate matter (SPM) and ambient sulphur dioxide levels of air pollution are about 4 times and 5 times higher in Dhaka than the level allowed by Bangladesh Air Quality Standard.

It's really bizarre to see a figure like 96Billion Taka($1.53 billion) is being wasted each your due to traffic jams in the city. Another scary fact is Dhaka is at a standstill for an average of 7.5 hours a day! If you have to sweat that much just getting to work and coming back in home then how can you do any real work?

The City went out of control. And it was so visible on the roads of Dhaka. The heat of the burning sun nearly roasted the road traffic police but they keep up their hope that things will change soon. No traffic rules seemed to be there in existence. Good news is now people feel confident to cross the road as they know there is a traffic law in order. Whatever you drive you break a single rule you'll instantly receive your gift.
