A five-member team of ACC conducted a drive in the New Baily road area on September 5 as they were informed through hotline 106 about the irregularities in obeying building code.

The team led by an assistant director of ACC Moinul Hasan in presence of Rajuk officials found that a plot (17/2) in the New Baily road did not follow the rules of keeping 30 per cent space in all sides. But the multistoried building was established without following the proper guidelines.  

Assistant authorized officer Abdul Latif and Inspector Zulfikar Ali Siddiqui primarily marked the building which did not follow the building code.

The team member of ACC said UNB that the official of Rajuk ensured them of taking the legal action including the evacuation of the unauthorized portion and imposition of the fine.

Members of the ACC team also said that the ACC will closely monitor all the steps taken in the legal process of RAJUK. Besides, the ACC will also investigate whether the officials of Rajuk have any negligence or not.

Earlier, the construction of the building outside the design of Rajuk in a plot of Niketon area of Gulshan was stopped on June 27, 2018, alongside the team also ensured the eviction through Rajuk. Likewise, on July 7, 2018, the construction work of a plot in Nikunjo-2 area was also stopped with the intervention of Rajuk.

Director General (administration) of the ACC and co-coordinator of the Enforcement Campaign Mohammad Munir Chowdhury said, "Disobeying the law is now a culture in our country which promotes the corruption. The surveillance of the ACC will continue to stop this trend from the country."
