C T Online Desk: Chittagong City Corporation (CCC) has spent a decade trying to get the project right. lack of foresight of policy makers. Again, CCC does not have financial prosperity as an institution. There are political conflicts and bureaucratic complications. For these four reasons today I am lying in a building built for slum dwellers at the foot of the hill adjacent to Tigerpass.
This is the grief of one of the employees of the corporation . As a member of the CCC family, we feel ashamed when a guest from home or abroad comes. There is no such thing as money, secondly there is no foresight. That is why the construction work of the city building has not started even in a long period. The chances of starting this year are slim.
City Mayor M Rezaul Karim Chowdhury said the overall objective of the project is to ensure civic amenities and play a helpful role in achieving sustainable development goals by improving the quality of life of the people by providing civic services. To ensure a conducive working environment for the officers and employees of the City Corporation for the purpose of providing services to the city dwellers.
He said now that the project is awaiting approval at the pre-ECNEC meeting. After the pre-ECNEC approval, approval will be given at the ECNEC meeting. He expressed hope that the entire building would not be completed during his tenure. However, he will transfer the office of Chittagong City Corporation to Nagar Bhaban within his tenure as much as possible.
