C T Online Desk: Syeda Rizwana Hasan, chief executive of the Bangladesh Environmental Lawyers Association (BELA), said the approval of a railway or a government hospital construction project in the CRB area would be challenged in court. The people of Chittagong are rising above all political identities and agitating to protect the CRB.
There is no chance of the political government going against the public opinion if it wants to maintain its minimum popularity. He was speaking to reporters after inspecting the site of the proposed hospital in the CRB area at noon on Thursday . Syeda Rizwana Hasan said there is no legal basis for building a hospital in CRB. The people of Chittagong have united in protest against the construction of a hospital in a green garden.
Respecting their movement, she hoped that the railways and the private sector would move away from the decision to build a hospital. Responding to a question from reporters, he said Chittagong is the most polluted city after Dhaka. CRB is one of the places of natural beauty and greenery. It is identified as a heritage and park in the master plan. There can be no rationale for destroying any such open garden and constructing any kind of installation. The initiative to build a hospital here is completely illegal. It can have no legal basis.
