DNCC Mayor Md Atiqul Islam visited various areas and inspected and directly supervised the waste disposal activities.

"Sacrifice at a specific place can create a festive atmosphere. The wastes can be removed in a short time as well. This also reduces health risks. This year, sacrifices have been made in nine specific places in three wards of DNCC on an experimental basis. As the sacrifice was made at a specific place, it was possible to remove 100% of the waste in the first ward by noon," Mayor Atiqul Islam said.
