Dhaka North City Corporation (DNCC) Administrator Shafiqul Islam Khan Milton declared on Wednesday (September 30, 2026) that municipal eviction drives against illegal sidewalk encroachments will proceed uninterrupted across Mirpur to ensure unobstructed pedestrian movement.
Speaking to journalists at the Mirpur-10 intersection following violent clashes, Administrator Milton strongly condemned the targeted vandalism against city corporation vehicles, media personnel, and police vans by illegal occupiers. He announced that both the DNCC and law enforcement agencies will file formal criminal cases against all individuals and instigators involved in the rioting. Milton commended local residents for standing alongside municipal workers to repel the attackers, reaffirming that cleared pedestrian zones will be repurposed with landscaping and urban greening initiatives—similar to recent beautification efforts around Mirpur-10 roundabout and foot-overbridges. Addressing the morning's breakdown, the Administrator also highlighted serious coordination lapses, noting that police personnel failed to arrive on site prior to the scheduled operation despite prior notifications.
