According to the current situation of Bangladesh, it is needed so badly which is beggar description. Most of the bikers already known that, Bangladesh Road Transport Authority(BRTA) issued a notice in public interest, each and every bikers of our country have to register their bike inside of 3rd June, otherwise they will not be able to roll on their bike. This notice issued from the top of our Police Department by IGP A.K.M Sohidul Haque. The horrible news he shared with us is, he said 90 percent of bikes in our country are non-registered. Which means, Government of Bangladesh is always been deprived from huge amount of Registration Fee. As a concern citizen, we should not avoid to register our bikes. It is good for both the government as well as the bikers. They also declare a decision, they will not going to show any good manner after 3rd of June on the non-registered bikers. This will be very much harassing for them. They suggested the bikers to register the bike, if they don't get the license in hand in time, they can show the money receipt (which they give to the authority for issue the license) to avoid such harassing situation. The authority don't make us clear why they making them so hard on this matter.
A common question can generate in our readers mind that, why government suddenly become so serious about licensing or issue the legal papers of bikes? There are so many reason behind this purpose.
First of all, the legal ownership of the bike by registering to the authority which approved by the government. Motorbike is the one of the most beloved thing of its owner. To secure its safety by the papers registration is badly needed. Otherwise, you cannot claim on it if, once it stolen or lost by any means.
There are of-course a matter of big amount of money for our government, but this fact is not the main reason behind the hard and fast of this regulation. The head cause is, to secure the public safety and security. License number is the identity of its owner. By the clue of this number administration can find out easily by whom the crime was committed.
All of us are well known with our recent political situation. This is one of the main cause to make sure of registration of bikes. Maximum of political crime (like patrol bombing) done by separately, criminal use license number bike and escape from the spot.
Beside, domestic or internal crimes (like murder, hijack, eve teasing and others) are also committed by the non-registered bikes. In the aim to stop these crimes they are suggesting strongly to register the bikes, otherwise non-register bikers will be count as a guilty.
We hope, all above these reasons help our readers enough to understand the importance of licensing the bikes. We also hope, without making any delay our readers who have non-register bike will register cordially very soon.
For our readers’ advancement, we making the licensing process at a straight. We don't want to see harassing our readers during licensing or registering their bike in office through the unknowing of process. Thats why, we letting you know the process.

We recommend our readers to follow the government instruction strictly. We may think, why the government making this so hard on us? This is a common tendency for us to think. But, if anyone thought deeply, you will get many positive sides from those strict decision. You cannot think a safe road without registering all the bikes. Each biker will have a tendency to drive their bike recklessly. You know why they going to do so. They have no registration number in their bikes tail which feel them safe from the administration to caught, if any accident occurs. We make this clear in the top, when this happen. Those bike that have no registration number are very difficult to find out who's bike was those. By registering the bike, not only reduce the crime but also prevent your bike from stolen. So, as a concern and a dutiful citizen of our country you should obey all the traffic rules that issued in public interest.
