After years of harassment and visiting government offices without any remedy, residents of Ratanpur village in Dharanji union of Panchbibi upazila, Joypurhat, have started building a bridge over the Choto Jamuna river using their hard-earned money and voluntary labor to end their long sufferings.
The river flows beside Ratanpur village, located south of the Bagjana and Atapara bridges, with dense settlements and agricultural lands on both banks. During the monsoon, villagers face great suffering for commuting and transporting crops. Although locals collected subscriptions to start construction, work stalled due to a lack of funds.
Farmer Keramat Ali said they cannot finish the work due to a lack of money. If the government helps, their commuting suffering would end. The locals expect necessary financial assistance from authorities to complete the unfinished bridge.
