Dhaka North City Corporation (DNCC) Administrator Md. Shafiqul Islam Khan announced that business operations will no longer be allowed on footpaths or roads. He made the statement on Thursday afternoon at a meeting with small and floating traders at Mukul Fouz Field in Mirpur, held to discuss clearing sidewalks from Mirpur-10 to Mirpur-1. Khan said the city corporation would arrange alternative business locations and urged traders to cooperate with the plan.
He emphasized that those who previously facilitated footpath businesses would no longer be allowed to do so. The DNCC would work with a humanitarian approach to address traders’ concerns. Traders, in turn, requested designated relocation sites, sufficient time for transition, and locations suitable for continuing their livelihoods. They warned that sudden eviction would put their families in crisis.
Khan assured that a practical solution would be reached through discussions with a five-member traders’ delegation. He also said DNCC would issue tokens to traders to prevent extortion and urged them to report any illegal demands.
