Dhaka South City Corporation has already covered up about 80% of their areas with LED street lights. Finally, Dhaka North City Corporation (DNCC) also has assured of installing 39,600 LED street lights in January. Each light will have 10 years’ warranty,said DNCC Engineer Lt. Colonel Azadur Rahman. Bangladesh Army Welfare Trust is in-charge of implementing this project. ECNEC approved DNCC’s 882.14 lacs taka proposal of installing 5000 CC cameras & 40,000 LED lights for beautification & security enhancement purposes in Dhaka North, in February. Unfortunately, due to several technical difficulties the project had been prolonged. DNCC signed deal with a German company for technical supports.
