Dhaka South City Corporation, Municipal authority in Dhaka, Bangladesh.
Dhaka South City Corporation is a municipal authority managing 75 wards across southern urban districts including Paltan, Motijheel, Jatrabari, and Dhanmondi. It coordinates services such as waste management, road maintenance, and health facilities for the local population.
The authority was established in 2011 when Dhaka City Corporation was divided, with southern areas placed under new management. This separation followed legislative reforms aimed at improving local governance in the capital.
The administration structure reflects local governance traditions through ward commissioners who represent specific neighborhoods and maintain direct connections with their constituent communities.
Visitors can access branch offices and service centers located throughout the districts to address administrative matters. It helps to identify the relevant ward office for your specific area when seeking information or services.
In 2016, eight additional unions were incorporated into the administration, significantly expanding its coverage area. This expansion enabled the authority to extend its services across more neighborhoods in the southern capital.
