Experience,thoughts,mind’s eye

A whole night in Dhaka city roads,isn’t it totally singular experience (taking a long breathe)?we always eager to know how the street people pass their night life in different casual areas like railway station,bus stations,infront of mosques,mazars,by the road side parks,the complete silence of Dhaka city so called on the go roads, labor of rickshaw-puller in late night,beauty of road face sodium lights,day long tired rickshaw puller’s sleeping,sudden arduous railway stations,passengers to leave or arrive,the street starving boys surfing their chore to bear the luggages of passengers and also begging money to eat a sort.

Almost suddent plan it can be said,me and one of my friends Sadib decided to pass a whole night in the streets of our city.Then we got us to make a journey in few familiar places tonight.
We started at about 8.30 p.m and decided Brigonga river bridge to start from.As we missed our Isha prayer so to offer it we at first went to a mosque in gulistan.After being relieved from that we decided to take our dinner at first branch of Star Hotel and we went there by foot through.and it was “Kachchi Biriani” we had in dinner.So nothing to say as it was really so tasty.I think that taste,it is too tough to erase from.

‘Babubazar bridge’ a place in old Dhaka we decided to go there first by a rickshaw.Picking off from it we got us in walking on the bridge under the shed of Sodium light.We also experienced a day-night cricket match at about 10.30 p.m.Its usually not seen a cricket match playing at night like a stadium.So after walking a few while we reached at burigonga river bridge.we had a plan to pass there about 1 hour but it was too dirty to stay there.But the scenic beauty in night at burigonga bridge was really charming it can be said with a short breathe.

So then we made tracks to Comlapur-Railway station.After walking a little path reached a rickshaw to comlapur.Upon reaching there we saw that environment of Dhaka city is still quarreling.The busiest round road ‘Shapla-chattar” was also groaning.By the way we reached at comlapur railway station at about 11.15 .A scheduled missed train was there to be repaired its engine.we reached at the back point of the station where the engine was being repaired.After a few long the engine was rejoined to the front end of the train and the train started journey to chittagong.After its departure the station becomes soundless and quiet following usual rules.The City is becoming black of little by little.We saw there the street boys and many homeless people were preparing there sheds to sleep in the stairs at the entry end of the stations.Many peoples are in out now to be prepared for there night professions.As we all know what kinds of jobs they have to work now after mid night.

After passing a few hours we left station and picked a rickshaw to go to a ‘mazar’ may be it is by the side of ‘kakrail’.But it was closed already a few hours before.So we missed the chance to take it.May be it was 1.30 or 2.00 .We heard before that Kakrail mosque is a place where homeless Muslim peoples are allowed to stay in night.We had a plan to take this little beat experience.But we missed it too.Because to stay at night in that mosque we would have reached there before 10.00 p.m.
As it was about 2.00 so at that time all the roads became so silent and almost soundless.Just only a few rickshaws and CNG vehicles were there.So we decided to come back at comlapur to pass a few hours of this night.So we again reached at railway station.Then the environment was so calm and quiet also.Within a short time a train arrived made the situation slightly noisy and healthy.After a few while it was become quit again.So finding no exception we decided to go to the Dhanmondi area near the Dhanmondi Lake.Though it was too risky because RAB,police forces were guarding that place.Anything can be happended upon doubting us.But we took the approach.After reaching there we passed a few minutes in Lake bridge.It was about 2.30.Then we picked up a rickshaw to make a hours-contact with him to the roads of Dhanmondi side.But it was become too risky because all the roads were so silent.No person were there without legal forces.So taking off the rickshaw we entered into a mosque that was open.We were so surprised that most of the mosques of Dhaka city remains closed after 10.00 or 11.00 p.m.We became excited that we found this open.So we then passed a few hours in that mosque.we found a young man who always come this mosque at night just praying from gulshan.Then we spent a few hours in Dhanmondi lake benches like street people.

When morning sun flashes gradually we left this place to Green Road area by a van.After taking Fazar prayer we took our breakfast at hotel Zinjira in green road.As we were so tired so without spending a short while we came back to our Home.Upon coming back I I was just thinking how was our today’s night long travelling?wasn’t it risky,enjoyable or a different experience?yea…it was really enjoyable,exciting and also risky without any doubt it can be said.
