During the days of Biswa Ijtema, the traffic jams become unbearable. The entire Airport Road and Uttara area remain blocked, causing immense sufferings to commuters and also air passengers returning to or leaving Dhaka. There is also no arrangement for emergency vehicles like Fire Brigades or Ambulances in case of an emergency. So, the Biswa Ijtema site must be relocated to another city which has an international airport like Chittagong or Sylhet. This will also give domestic airlines the opportunities like transporting ijtema passengers to and from Dhaka. I really hope the government will take this seriously and act upon it, because this pilgrimage is growing and increasing vastly every year.
