  • Inventory of LGED Road Network, March 2005, Bangladesh
    The Chief Engineer Local Government Engineering Department PREFACE It is a matter of satisfaction that LGED Road Database has been published through compilation of data that represent all relevant information of rural road network of the country in a structured manner. The Rural Infrastructure Maintenance Management Unit of LGED (former Rural Infrastructure Maintenance Cell) took up the initiative to create a road inventory database in mid nineties to register all of its road assets country-wide with the help of customized software called, Road and Structure Database Management System. The said database was designed to accommodate all relevant information on the road network sequentially and the system was upgraded from time to time to cater the growing needs. In general, the purpose of this database is to use it in planning and management of LGED's rural road network by providing detailed information on roads and structures. In particular, from maintenance point of view this helps to draw up comprehensive maintenance program including rational allocation of fund based on various parameters and physical condition of the road network. According to recent road re-classification, LGED is responsible for construction, development and maintenance of three classes of roads, which has been named as Upazila Road, Union Road and Village Road (category A & B) in association with Local Government Institution. The basic information about these roads like, road name, road type, length, surface type, condition, structure number with span, existing gaps with length, etc. has been made available in the road inventory. Side by side, corresponding spatial data are also provided in the road map comprising this document.

  • Soil Characterization and Fertility Assessment of Char Lands for Increased Cropping Intensity and Crop Productivity MM Ali1*, MMA Tarafder1, N Mohsin2, MA Haque1
    Progressive Agriculture 31 (1): 56-67, 2020 ISSN: 1017 - 8139 Soil characterization and fertility assessment of char lands for increased cropping intensity and crop productivity MM Ali1*, MMA Tarafder1, N Mohsin2, MA Haque1 1Soil Science Division, Bangladesh Institute of Nuclear Agriculture; 2Department of Soil Science, Bangladesh Agricultural University, Mymensingh 2202, Bangladesh. Abstract A study was done for soil characterization and soil fertility assessment in Char Latif and Char Monpura of Bhola District to identify suitable crops for increasing cropping intensity and crop yields. The soils of Char Latif were almost silt loam to silty clay loam in texture. Soil pH values were slightly alkaline in reaction. The organic matter contents were low to medium (1.23-2.53%), the total N very low to low (0.08-0.22%), available P low to very low -1 -1 (4.67-14.1µg g soil), available S low to very high (4.02-156.8 µg g soil) and exchangeable K low to optimum (0.138-0.311%), exchangeable Ca and Na very high in Char Latif areas. At Char Monpura areas, the soils were silt loam to silty clay loam in texture. The soil pH was neutral to slightly alkaline in reaction. The organic matter contents of the soil were low to medium (0.21-2.60%) and the total N contents were very low to low (0.03- 0.18%). Available P contents were very low (2.40-6.65 µg g-1 soil). Available S contents were low to very high -1 (4.02-156.8 µg g soil).

  • Three-Month Human Rights Monitoring Report on Bangladesh
    THREE-MONTH HUMAN RIGHTS MONITORING REPORT ON BANGLADESH Reporting Period: April – June 2021 Prepared by Odhikar Date of Release: 9 July 2021 Foreword Since its inception in 1994, Odhikar has been relentlessly fighting for the protection of the civil, political, social, economic and cultural rights of the people. Odhikar does not see the human rights movement in Bangladesh as merely a matter of protecting ‘individuals’ who are victims of human rights violations; rather, it considers the struggle for the establishment of civic and human dignity of the individual as inseparable from the movement and struggle for the formation of a democratic state. As a human rights organisation, Odhikar has always sought to raise awareness of and campaign against all human rights violations and campaign for internationally recognized civil and political rights. Odhikar unconditionally stands by the victims of human rights abuses, irrespective of their views; and works to ensure the safety of the victims and establish justice. Odhikar has been facing elevated levels of persecution and harassment by the current government since 2013. Despite this adverse situation, Odhikar has prepared this quarterly human rights monitoring report for the period spanning April to June 2021, based on the reports sent by the human rights defenders associated with Odhikar and data published in various media. To see the previous human rights reports of Odhikar, please visit www.odhikar.org; Facebook: Odhikar.HumanRights; Twitter: @odhikar_bd 2 Contents Executive Summary ................................................................................................................................
