Dhaka, May 13 -- Dhaka North City Corporation (DNCC) Administrator Md Safiqul Islam Khan on Wednesday asked the canal grabbers in Mirpur to remove their structure within a specific time, warning that legal action will be taken against them for failure to comply.

"It cannot be accepted that the whole of Mirpur's residents will suffer for a few people. We cannot continue spending public money to clean canals every day only to see them return to the previous condition the next day," he said while visiting the canal-cleaning activities at the Sangbadik Colony canal in Kalshi in the capital.
