Dhaka South City Corporation (DSCC) Administrator Md Mahmudul Hasan on Saturday made a surprise field visit to inspect the ongoing larviciding and cleanliness drives aimed at controlling dengue at Green Road Staff Quarters and Dhanmondi areas.
During the visit, the Administrator issued necessary directives to the officials concerned.
He said that since the government staff quarters fall under the jurisdiction of the Public Works Department (PWD), effective dengue control requires joint efforts from both the Public Works Department (PWD) authorities and the residents’ committees.
The Administrator assured full cooperation from DSCC in ensuring sustained mosquito control efforts.
“Effective dengue control demands collective effort from all stakeholders. Dhaka South City Corporation will continue to monitor and strengthen mosquito control activities,” he said.
The Administrator was accompanied by DSCC Chief Executive Officer Md Zohirul Islam, Acting Chief Health Officer Dr Nishat Parveen, Regional Executive Officer (Region-1) Kazi Saleh Mustanjir, and other officials.
