Ariful Islam pledges to solve gas shortage in Dhaka-18

Jamaat alliance candidate for the Dhaka-18 constituency, Ariful Islam, has vowed to address the ongoing gas shortage in the Bauniya area and its surrounding regions.

"While regular gas bills have been collected from Bauniya and nearby areas 
for a long time, adequate gas supply has never been ensured. This has caused 
significant hardships, especially for mothers, who face daily struggles with 
the gas crisis while cooking," he said, adding "If elected, I will take 
effective measures to resolve the gas shortage in this region."

Ariful Islam made these comments during a street rally after Juma prayers at 
Bauniya Bazar Jam-e-Mosque in Turag today.

Earlier, he conducted public outreach and distributed leaflets in Bauniya 
Bazar and surrounding areas.

He said that the roads in Bauniya Bazar and nearby areas are in deplorable 
condition.

"Despite previous allocations for road development, those funds were not used 
effectively. As a result of mismanagement and irregularities by elected 
representatives, the common people have been deprived of the benefits they 
deserve," he said.

"We aim to build an equitable city and we will ensure the development of 
roads in every ward of Turag," he assured.

Ariful Islam also highlighted the lack of sufficient government educational 
institutions in Turag, noting, "Local students are facing various challenges 
due to this shortage. To build a safe and well-planned city, I will work to 
establish government educational institutions in every ward based on the 
local population."

He also expressed hope to make municipal services more effective and 
accessible through the City Corporation."

Earlier in the day, Ariful Islam conducted public outreach and distributed 
leaflets in the Kawla and Ashkona areas of the Dhaka-18 constituency.
