Residents of Rajabazar area in the capital face intolerable sufferings due to the ongoing construction works of the sewage system, which has continued for months in the locality.

The sewage reconstruction process which was meant to alleviate the drainage condition of the area, has become a nightmare.

The streets are blocked with construction work materials and many deep holes have been dug which make pedestrian movement very difficult and the leaves the roads unusable.

The area is frequently gridlocked, disrupting the daily livelihoods of the residents, and obstructing the movement of rickshaws, vans and other vehicles.
