Ensuring safe lifts for all
In Dhaka, most offices, courts, hospitals, and educational institutions have such old lifts that using them often feels like risking one’s life. Many lifts shake, and if overloaded, they make terrifying noises. Yet, people continue to use these lifts despite the danger. Incidents of fatalities while using lifts occasionally make the news, but there is a lack of awareness from both the institutions and the lift users.

To prevent road accidents, enforcement of laws and awareness is essencial
The expectation of safe roads is a citizen's right. Various initiatives are being implemented both by the government and non-governmental organizations to fulfill this expectation. However, despite these efforts, unexpected accidents continue to occur in the country. Lives are being lost every day and life has become miserable for those who survive the accident. Therefore, ensuring safe roads in the country is necessary to reduce road accidents. Alongside this, there is no alternative to public awareness and effective enforcement of existing laws.
