Dhaka North City Corporation (DNCC) has installed 500 more Closed Circuit (CC) cameras by November this year in Gulshan, Baridhara, Banani and Niketon areas.
With the financial assistance from local business communities, DNCC has taken this new security initiative with a view to building an atmosphere of confidence among the foreign diplomats, international organization members and foreign buyers.
The decision comes out of a ‘Law and Order Coordination Committee (LOCC)’ meeting held at DNCC’s Nagar Bhaban yesterday presided by Mayor Annisul Huq. Another 646 CC cameras were installed before at DNCC’s own cost together with the financial assistance from business communities and various local and foreign organizations.
