Taposh wants to close shops by 8 pm

Dhaka South City Corporation (DSCC) Mayor Barrister Sheikh Fazle Noor Taposh has called to shut down the shops and businesses in the south city corporation areas by 8pm.

He came up with the urge while speaking as the chief guest at the inauguration of the ten-storied Sheikh Hasina Academic Building of Sher-e-Bangla Mohila Mahaviddaloya at Tikatuli in the capital as part of his regular weekly on-the-spot inspection on Wednesday.

He said that the DSCC wants to bring the city under a proper management and that is why all business institutions and shops should be closed by 8 pm.

Earlier at the foundation stone laying ceremony of Azimpur Adhunik Nagar Market, DSCC mayor Taposh said the concerned authority will finish the construction work of the market soon.

Responding to a question from reporters about the public toilets, he said the DSCC is already studying how many ward-based public toilets are needed and in which wards the requirements are more.

He said the concerned authority will build at least one public toilet in each ward.
