Prime Minister Tarique Rahman on Friday drove through different roads under the Dhaka North City Corporation (DNCC) to inspect the city’s services including cleanliness as part of his government efforts to make Dhaka a cleaner capital.
“The Prime Minister drove through different roads in the northern part of the capital this afternoon to see the cleanliness situation on the ground. His vehicle crossed Shyamoli around 6:10pm,” said PM’s Deputy Press Secretary Jahidul Islam Rony.
He said the prime minister left his Gulshan residence at 4:05pm and drove the vehicle himself.
During the inspection, he passed through Shyamoli, Bijoy Sarani, Rokeya Sarani, Mirpur-10, Kachukhet and Shewrapara before returning to his Gulshan residence around the time of Maghrib prayers after touring the roads for about two and a half hours.
Rony said the tour reflects the prime minister’s firm stance that he wants to see Dhaka as a clean city.
State Minister for LGRD and Cooperatives Mir Shahe Alam, DNCC Administrator Md. Safiqul Islam Khan Milton, BNP Special Secretary Belayet Hossain, PM’s Private Secretary Md. Mehedul Islam and Assistant Private Secretary Abdur Rahman Suny accompanied the Prime Minister in the vehicle.
