Atiqul Urges Traders to Follow City Corporation Rules

On Friday, Dhaka North City Corporation (DNCC) Mayor Md Atiqul Islam urged traders to obey the rules and regulations of the city corporation, saying no illegal work would be allowed in the capital.

“Whatever you do, you have to seek permission from the city corporation authorities. There are rules and regulations for everything. We are seeing some people are installing illegal signboards, digital boards and LED signs without any permission. But whenever we are conduction raids, they say they don’t know about rules,” he said.

After inspecting his office's raids against illegal signboards, digital boards and LED signs on Banani Road 11 in the capital, the DNCC Mayor said this while talking to newsmen.

The size of your company's signboard is clearly stated there once you take the trade license. You took permission to sign the 3 feet by 4 feet scale, and mount 30 feet by 40 feet signboard, with LED lights, it's illegal, "added Atiqul.

Referring to today's raid, where an Education Institute's illegal signboard was removed, the DNCC Mayor said what kind of education such an institution would provide its pupil with.

"The beauty of the city is ruined by such signboards. These block our opinions. Some people make extra money by renting those signs. But we wouldn't let this happen, "the mayor said.

Atiqul said he is receiving many calls from the people, whose illegal signboards are being removed, adding, “I want to make one thing clear, please do not call me for this purpose, if you do, then I won’t receive.”

Today’s operation was led by DNCC zone-7 executive officer and magistrate Motabbir Ahmed and around 50 illegal signboards were removed, which were sold at Taka 40 thousand in open auction.
