Opinions of people about the ongoing road-transportation crisis in Dhaka city and it’s causes and effects.

The purpose of this research is to find out the reactions of the people, regarding:

The alarming and ongoing road-transportation crisis problem

Why it is happening

What are the consequences of this crisis

What are people thinking, about to give a solution to this problem

Introduction

My research concerns about the opinions of people and I believe that

they will put a good judgment about the matter. Where they will

identify some major causes and possible major effects. In order to be

a part of changing this situation they will also recommend some

solutions to this matter.

There will obviously be a group who is going to criticize about the

survey. Nevertheless, I expect most of the people will feel

progressive in the sense that probably it is the best chance to

express what they feel about the growing road-transportation crisis

problem of the Dhaka city.

Research Findings

The findings of the research paper show that- the most people of Dhaka city feel that they should take seriously ongoing road-transportation crisis .

They want to know about the reasons behind this situation.

Our city will be nothing but benefited from this, because in that case we will have so many ideas and options to choose from and eventually to create different sorts of solutions.

Conclusion

I believe that in the end, my hypothesis has been proved to aconvincing extent. The people of Dhaka city have always been

open to express what they feel and they continue to keep expressing.

There is of course the concern that their judgments might not100% correct all the time but with some modifications and

changes we can accept it, but it is also true that their judgments about the crisis is alarming.

So we should consider their judgments seriously and try to find a long-term solution to this crisis.

Thank you.

And… have a nice day!
