An Awami League leader in Gobindapur, Jamalpur Sadar, restarted operations at an illegal brick kiln only 24 hours after a court ordered its closure and demolition of its chimney. The kiln owner, Khorshed, who is a member of the Sharifpur Union Awami League and an elected union council member, resumed brick production without obtaining any new permission, in defiance of the court’s directive. Local residents have expressed strong resentment over the violation.
Earlier, an operation led by Executive Magistrate Kishore Kumar Roy from the Department of Environment, assisted by RAB and police, bulldozed the kiln’s chimney and imposed a fine of Tk 50,000, ordering the site to shut down. Khorshed admitted that no authorization had been secured for rebuilding or restarting the kiln.
Jamalpur Deputy Commissioner Mohammad Yusuf Ali stated that upon receiving reports of the violation, he instructed the Upazila Nirbahi Officer to take necessary action regarding the matter.
