Yes I am writing about Chunati Ishaque Mia Road connecting key of Chunati to Pantrisha via Nariccha Chanda Patial Road, which Transport and Bridges Minister Mr. Obaidul Quader will inaugurate on 23 September 2018.
From “Priyo chunati” we know that “Morhum Ishaque Mia was the President (Now it’s called to be UP Chairmen) of Chunati Union. Because of lack of direct road link, the vast eastern parts of the Union comprising villages Patial Para, Chanda, Narischa, Pantrisha and Faranga were detached from mainland Chunati. Direct road connectivity with these far flung localities was Ishaque Mia's long cherished dream and Ishaque Mia Road is the realization of that dream. As recognition of his contributions, Lohagarah Upazila Parishad, through a resolution, proposed to name the road after him. The LGRD Ministry finally was pleased to approve the proposal through a Gazette notification.”
