Dhaka North City Corporation (DNCC) has distributed around BDT 2 million in financial incentives to 21 churches across the capital ahead of Christmas. The initiative, funded from the administrator’s discretionary fund, aims to support religious events, social welfare activities, and community preparations for the holiday.

DNCC Administrator Mohammad Ejaz extended greetings to all residents, emphasizing the city’s commitment to ensuring a safe and festive environment for people of all faiths. He stated that DNCC seeks to foster a multicultural, humane city where citizens of every religion and culture can live without fear or discrimination. The administrator reaffirmed that the corporation values civic harmony, tolerance, and mutual respect, pledging continued practical support for major religious festivals.

Similar financial assistance was previously provided by DNCC during Eid and Durga Puja, reflecting an ongoing policy of promoting interfaith cooperation and social inclusion within Dhaka’s diverse urban community.
