Dhaka North City Corporation (DNCC) Mayor Mohammad Atiqul Islam on Saturday inspected the ongoing integrated mosquito eradication operation (squash program) in the DNCC’s Bhatara and Satarkul areas. During this time he visited Bhatara 100 feet road, sand field, Dumni area.

During the visit, DNCC Mayor Atiqul Islam said that mosquito infestation has increased as there are many challenges in mosquito control in general. We have a substantial shortage of follow-up. We are still monitoring this in the traditional way. Those of us who have councilors have to take responsibility. Tracking in the traditional way will not work. The city corporation also has a shortage of mosquito workers, mosquito supervisors, and caretakers.

“We understand that the mosquito eradication campaign must be modernized,” he said. We need to educate the public. There is a lot of lack of awareness. In addition, we are discussing with entomologists the application of drugs in new ways. Mosquito expeditions will be conducted in a modern and scientific way.

Mayor Atiqul Islam added that the mosquitoes did not appear for a day or two. We think, the way the councilors are working since morning, the way the mosquito workers are working, you see, I’m trying to go everywhere. It’s not like I go to sleep right after going to one. But I am doing it. We continue our efforts. But we are not sitting at home, we are not sitting at the office. I am with everyone in the field all day. There is no doubt that the mosquito extermination process must be changed and expanded reaching the field itself.

The mayor said councilors must take responsibility. It should be more difficult to more difficult. The councilors will control themselves. If our staff is working properly. The councilors must list where the ponds are. One thing that surprised me was the sink behind the counselor’s office. I asked him why he didn’t go to Dobar. I will tell the councilors to map their respective areas. There will also be a campaign against Dobar.

The campaign will continue until March 16.

During the visit, among others, were present the executive director of DNCC, Md. Selim Reza, the secretary Rabindra Shri Barua, the director of health, Brigadier General Jobaidur Rahman, the neighborhood councilor Nazrul Islam Dhali, Mr. Shafiqul Islam , the councilor of the reserved seat Nilufar Yasmin Iti.
