China to bankroll sewage treatment plant

Rejaul Karim Byron


The government is set to build a sewage treatment plant in the capital's Khilgaon area at a cost of Tk 3,318 crore, two-thirds of which will be financed by China.

The proposal for the Dasherkandi Sewage Treatment Plant project, which is scheduled for completion in 2019, will be placed in today's meeting of the Executive Committee of National Economic Council.

China will provide Tk 2,184 crore, or $280 million, in soft loans; the rate of interest will be about 2 percent, according to a high official of the planning ministry.

As was the case in previous loans from China, a firm nominated by its government will implement the project.

The Chinese government has already nominated Hydro China Corporation for the project, with a draft commercial contract already signed with the company in November last year.

For the project, 60 acres of land will be acquired in Gazaria area, Khilgaon.

Once the plant has been built, sewage from Gulshan, Banani, Baridhara, Bashundhara, Tejgaon, Moghbazar, Eskaton, and parts of Dhanmondi and Kalabagan could be treated using modern techniques, according to the proposal from the planning ministry.

At present, sewage from the proposed areas is released untreated into Balu and Shitalakhya rivers, threatening river ecology.

With financing from the World Bank, a sewage master plan has been prepared, under which 11 plants will be around Dhaka.

New Master Plan for capital in the offing

Fresh growth management area to swallow crop lands, flood flow zones

August 3, 2015 12:44 am

Mahamudul Hasan

The government recently notified in the official gazette a draft Master Plan spelling out the guidelines for the development of the capital over the next two decades beginning 2016.


The new Master Plan earmarks a vast growth management area, which would swallow crop lands and flood flow zones in and around the capital. It would repeal the existing Master Plan, said the notification.


Affected people and objectors have been requested to submit their objections or recommendations to RAJUK’s town planner within 60 days from July 7, when the draft Master plan was notified in the official gazette.


The draft Master Plan seeks to legalize several housing facilities, under construction or already built flouting the existing Master Plan and the Detailed Area Plan for the capital.


The consultants who prepared the master plan for 2016-2035 raised the question how long such unauthorized constructions would be legalized due to recurrent failure of the regulating authorities.


They recorded their reservations in the draft master plan itself.


In their review, they depicted an alarming picture of construction activities proceeding in violation of the spatial, environmental and socio-economic guidelines laid down in the existing Master Plan.


Out of 31 guidelines in the outgoing Master Plan only eight were partially followed, resulting in unplanned development and growth of the capital, they pointed out.


They pointed out that in violation of the guidelines in the existing Master Plan, 30 per cent of the flood flow zones in the capital and along the Shitalakhya, Balu, Turag, Buriganga and Dhaleshwari rivers had been grabbed by influential quarters.

They cited the examples of construction of 2,827 structures many of them by developers, a private medical college, an army graveyard and Mass Grave Memorial at Dhaka Uddyan on Turag River’s bank though the existing Master plan and the DAP prohibited any development activities on this flood flow zone.

They also pointed out that the government took no steps to protect the retention ponds from as prescribed by the existing Master Plan and the DAP.

They said that the DAP’s land use zoning plan for the capital had been severely compromised with the authorities looked the other way as developers and influential quarters constructed building flouting the land use zoning plane.

It resulted in unplanned development and spatial growth of the capital, they pointed out.

The newly earmarked growth management area would include Gachcha to Kayaltiya and Konabari in Gazipur, Dhamsona, Ashulia, Hemayetpur and Aminbazar under Savar, areas around Turag, Uttara 3rd Phase, Demra, Amulia, Badda, Daksin Khan, Uttar Khan, Ajampur, areas around the Jhilmeel project, Zinjira, Keraniganj, Kutubpur, the areas around Purbachal and Golakandail in Rupganj upazila.


The new plan identifies Narayanganj city, Gazipur old municipal area, Tongi old municipal are, Savar, Tarabo municipal area, Jhilmeel, Siddirganj and Purbachal New Town as the capital’s suburbs.

RAJUK town planner Md Sirajul Islam told New Age that the consultants identified the vast growth management area considering the development activities taking place there.

He said earmarking growth management areas would facilitate people in getting RAJUK’s approval to construction plans.


Saman Corporation and Han-A Urban Research Institute of Korea, Sheltech and DevCon of Bangladesh prepared the draft master plan.


In the light of the new master plan a new DAP is under preparation for the next two decades.

Old Dhaka could have been a big tourist attraction of Bangladesh or even Asia if proper planning were made, in contrary, it has been left with utter negligence... just a few months back there was a report where a 300 year old mosque was being demolished by the builders and the authority didn't even feel to stop them....

Quader also said the government would construct another marine drive road from Mirsarai of Chittagong to Cox's Bazar while Korerhat-Ramgarh-Khagrachhari road would be tuned into a four lane one for easy transportation.

"Besides, five kilometres road on north side of Shah Amanat Bridge and three kilometres on its south side would be turned into six-lane road at a cost of Tk 220 crore", the minister said this while addressing a reception function of the newly elected city mayor A J M Nasir Uddin.

Chittagong Chamber of Commerce and Industry (CCCI) accorded the reception to the newly elected mayor of Chittagong City Corporation (CCC), held at World Trade Centre auditorium.

Addressing the function as the chief guest, the minister also said the government would soon carry out a feasibility test for turning Chittagong-Cox's Bazar highway into a four lane one.

Terming the new Chittagong city mayor A J M Nasir as a 'man of deeds', Quader advised Nasir to concentrate more on turning the port city into a clean and water-logging free city.

Addressing the function, the newly elected city mayor A J M Nasir said he will work with utmost honesty, sincerity and transparency to fulfil his pre-election pledges.

Seeking cooperation from the businessmen, A J M Nasir said he would even sacrifice his life to serve the city residents who elected him mayor and he would try to run the corporation with zero tolerance towards any kind of irregularity.

He said he would also exchange views with journalists after every three months and seek their advice to solve different problems of the port city.

CCCI president Mahbubul Alam presided over the function while Awami League law makers- MA Latif, Shamsul Hoque and Didarul Alam, administrator of Chittagong Zila Parishad MA Salam, CCCI senior vice-president Nurun Newaz Selim and vice-president Syed Jamal Ahmed, among others, were present at the function.

Make it a "v/s" thread to spice it up and attract eyeballs, I will contribute! Otherwise it will end up as another "Bangladeshi member only" thread.

Just check this old "v/s" thread below by a very renowned and respectable (He gained more popularity than even @BDforever in a short time, he is now banned though due to conspiracy! ) member @IamBengali , it got the highest viewership of 61,421 views in the history of PDF.

Dhaka v/s Kolkata

Bhai there is no faida in D!ck measuring.

I personally am happy if you consider Kolkata to be more developed city than Dhaka. It may very well be.

Our urban areas in Bangladesh may not be perfect but they are ours. We call them home (warts 'n all).

And I don't think me (or a lot of Bangladeshis here) consider mudslinging as a sport, no matter how many eyeballs it scores.

All I request is that you be civil, stick to the topic (Urban development in Bangladesh), ask questions but otherwise not engage in trolling and or heated discussions. The reasons people come to this thread are because they simply want to find out the state of urban development in Bangladesh. Sorry to bore you but that's all this thread will ever be.

Old Dhaka could have been a big tourist attraction of Bangladesh or even Asia if proper planning were made, in contrary, it has been left with utter negligence... just a few months back there was a report where a 300 year old mosque was being demolished by the builders and the authority didn't even feel to stop them....

I think both Singapore and KL did a great job of reviving their older neighborhoods (for Singapore near the downtown boat quay area).

Look at what it looked like in the 50's (Doesn't look a lot different than Bangshal road)

Transformed in the early 80's but still looking a bit shabby....

And look at it today (1st one overhead shot)
