Dhaka South City Corporation has declared 12 wards as high-risk areas amid a severe mosquito outbreak across the capital. The decision includes a four-tier monitoring system and the deployment of mobile courts to enforce control measures. The city has launched a month-long cleanliness and crash program, categorizing wards into high, medium, and general risk levels. Seven officials have been assigned to oversee operations, and two executive magistrates will lead mobile court drives.
Residents report that mosquito infestations have reached alarming levels in neighborhoods such as Badda, Rampura, Malibagh, and Shahbagh, where stagnant water and waste accumulation have become breeding grounds. Citizens complain that fogging and awareness campaigns have failed to reduce the problem, and many blame poor waste management and drainage conditions for the persistent crisis.
Dhaka South City’s administrator stated that local imams will be engaged to raise public awareness, and citizens who fail to eliminate breeding sites around their homes may face mobile court action. The city’s efforts aim to curb the spread of dengue and chikungunya as public frustration grows.
