Minister for Local Government, Rural Development and Cooperatives (LGRD) Dr. Abdul Moyeen Khan has instructed relevant authorities to take immediate, effective measures to tackle severe traffic congestion, dengue spread, and waterlogging across the capital.
The directive was issued during a review meeting on urban cleanliness, dengue prevention, traffic management, canal excavation, and sustainable urban development held at the Secretariat on Wednesday (September 23, 2026). Addressing officials, Dr. Moyeen Khan emphasized that traffic delays directly damage economic productivity, urging city corporations to streamline urban mobility. He also highlighted the ongoing nationwide cleanliness and dengue awareness campaign—launched by the Prime Minister and set to run until December 12—demanding intensified mosquito control operations and breeding site destruction. State Minister Mir Shahe Alam and administrators from both Dhaka North and Dhaka South City Corporations presented progress updates, which received satisfaction from ministry leadership alongside calls for sustained execution.
