Dhaka-12 MP Saiful Alam Milon from Jamaat voiced serious concern in the National Parliament on Tuesday over the worsening waterlogging in Dhaka following several days of heavy rainfall. He said that sewage and rainwater have merged, making living conditions unbearable in his constituency and across the city. Speaking on a point of order, he described the situation as a major public hardship.

Milon drew the attention of the Local Government Minister, noting that even areas around the Parliament building and VIP roads such as Bijoy Sarani suffer from severe flooding during the monsoon. He emphasized that many parts of Dhaka face similar conditions and urged the government to take urgent measures to address the crisis.

He warned that without immediate action, residents of Dhaka would continue to face unlivable conditions due to the persistent waterlogging problem.
