The Chittagong Metropolitan Police (CMP) has initiated a cleanliness campaign in creating awareness among the city dwellers on Friday.
CMP police personnel initiated the special campaign by sweeping and dumping dust and wastes from different city streets and roads around 11am.
CMP Commissioner Abdul Jalil Mandol inaugurated the campaign at the Jamilatul Falah Masjid premises WASA intersection area in the port city.
Officers of different levels, including the commissioner attended the drive along with five hundred police personnel at the city’s WASA, Dampara and Kazir Dewri area.
While attending the campaign the CMP Commissioner said, “CMP took the initiative in a bid to create awareness among the people on community efforts and it is also our duty.”
“We always admit that government and city corporations are only responsible to clean the garbage dumps lying all over the city. But it would be better for all of us if people came up with their responsibilities and dump their wastes in dustbins,” he added.
CMP will continue such special drives for people’s awareness, said the commissioner.
