The newly appointed administrators of Dhaka North and South City Corporations have announced their commitment to make the capital free from terrorism. They made the declaration on Tuesday afternoon after paying tribute at the graves of Ziaur Rahman and Khaleda Zia. Alongside this pledge, they also expressed hope to resolve long-standing civic problems in the city.

Dhaka South City Corporation Administrator Abdus Salam stated that tackling corruption and extortion to ensure an active administration is now a major challenge. The administrators emphasized their intention to restore order and address the issues that have affected city governance for years.

Their statements signal an administrative focus on improving governance and public safety in Dhaka, though specific plans or timelines for implementation were not detailed in the announcement.
