Urban development in Bangladesh

[dray]

Bhai there is no faida in D!ck measuring.

I personally am happy if you consider Kolkata to be more developed city than Dhaka. It may very well be.

Our urban areas in Bangladesh may not be perfect but they are ours. We call them home (warts 'n all).

And I don't think me (or a lot of Bangladeshis here) consider mudslinging as a sport, no matter how many eyeballs it scores.

All I request is that you be civil, stick to the topic (Urban development in Bangladesh), ask questions but otherwise not engage in trolling and or heated discussions. The reasons people come to this thread are because they simply want to find out the state of urban development in Bangladesh. Sorry to bore you but that's all this thread will ever be.

World's largest street painting - Manik Mia Avenue (AgarGaon, Dhaka)

An Alpona is a common folk art form, made of patterns meant to adorn areas for celebration. Five of Bangladesh’s leading senior artists led 220 young artisans and thousands of citizens to create this form by hand, covering the full 1-kilometer stretch of Manik Mia Avenue in joyful celebration of the Bangla New Year.
