Elected representatives from 43 upazilas sworn in

CHATTOGRAM, April 25, 2019 (BSS)- The newly elected upazila
representatives — upazila chairmen, vice chairmen and female vice chairmen –
– of 43 upazilas under five districts of Chattogram division, including Cox’s
bazar, Bandarban, Rangamati and Khagrachari districts were sworn-in on
Thursday.

Commissioner of Chattogram Division Abdul Mannan administered the oath
taking at a simple ceremony at Chattogram Circuit House. A total of 43
upazila chairmen, 43 vice chairmen and 42 female vice chairmen took their
oath today.

The commissioner in his brief speech urged the newly-elected upazila
chairmen and vice-chairmen to render their services with the commitment of
building the nation free from all sorts of curses like corruption, terrorism,
extremism and drug-addiction.

He said the public representatives have a pivotal role towards reaching
the public services to the grassroots people effectively as the present
government of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina is committed to do the same.

Meanwhile, female vice chairmen of Kaptai upazila did not take part in the
oath taking ceremony.

Deputy Inspector General of Police Golam Faruk, high officials of
Chattogram, Rangamati, Bandarban, Cox’s Bazar and Khagrachari district
