Dhaka North City Corporation, Municipal administration in Dhaka, Bangladesh
Dhaka North City Corporation is the municipal administration serving northern Dhaka and manages local government functions across the region. It handles waste collection, public health services, urban development, and tax systems for the communities it serves.
The corporation was created in 2011 when a previous larger city administration was split into two separate entities to better serve different parts of the city. This division allowed for more focused management of northern Dhaka's growth and services.
The corporation conducts non-partisan mayoral elections every five years, with 72 councillors representing diverse communities across northern Dhaka's neighborhoods.
Residents can access services through an online portal where they can submit requests and manage payments. Digital access helps residents handle municipal matters without needing to visit in person for routine tasks.
The corporation has implemented an Innovation Lab to modernize municipal operations and introduced digital solutions for addressing urban development requirements.
