Suhrawardy Udyan, a significant public space in Dhaka, has been cleared of all illegal structures and shops following a joint operation involving several key authorities. The operation, led by Dhaka South City Corporation Executive Magistrate Mohammad Aminul Islam, included members from Dhaka University's Proctorial Body, the Dhaka City Public Works Department, and law enforcement agencies. The drive successfully removed all unauthorized encroachments within the park this afternoon.
Suhrawardy Udyan, a historic and cultural landmark, has often faced issues with illegal encroachments. These structures not only disrupt the natural environment but also pose safety and aesthetic concerns for visitors. The joint operation aimed to address these issues and restore the park to its intended use as a public space.
Dhaka University's Proctorial Body and the Dhaka City Public Works Department played crucial roles in identifying and marking the illegal structures for removal. The presence of law enforcement ensured the smooth execution of the drive, minimizing any potential resistance from those affected.
Concerned officials have stated that such eviction drives will continue regularly to maintain the integrity of Suhrawardy Udyan. Preserving the natural environment and ensuring public safety are the primary goals of these ongoing efforts.
The successful clearance of illegal structures is expected to enhance the visitor experience at Suhrawardy Udyan, allowing people to enjoy the park without the disruption of unauthorized commercial activities. The authorities are committed to maintaining this standard in the future.
