Urbanization-1



Bangladesh is now familiar now with rapid urbanization which grows haphazard and unplanned manner. Even the urbanization in Bangladesh is not evenly distributed. Huge pressure development and population pressure occurred for the large cities of the country specially, Dhaka the capital of the country. It is now urgency to ensure decentralizes urbanization through the planned end effective development of secondary town of the country. But the reality from the past experience, it has been observed that plans are prepared for organized development, but development control has been subject to negligence. In most cases, execution has been piece-meal. It is unfortunate that town planning has not yet become a part of our urban development culture. Individuals develop lands and construct buildings with a little respect for planned development, and the concerned authority is also unable to exercise full control on development. Some strict measures are necessary to make stakeholders follow up plans and development rules. Awareness is to be built among the people to follow the Master Plan provisions and plan. Government agencies must be compelled to follow plans. Existing laws in this regard must be updated incorporating provisions of plan execution.
