Clean Dhaka concert postponed

Today's “Clean Dhaka Concert with Bollywood Queen and AJ”, scheduled to be organised by Dhaka South City Corporation (DSCC) and Antar Showbiz at Bangabandhu National Stadium, has been postponed for an indefinite period apparently for a lack of preparation.

The concert aimed at urging to ensure a cleaner Dhaka and supporting cleanup workers. 

DSCC Mayor Sayeed Khokon told The Daily Star last night that the postponement came at the request of the Dhaka Metropolitan Police (DMP) commissioner, who informed them that they were not prepared due to a shortage of time. Khokon claimed that the organisers had nearly completed their preparations.

“It has been found that there is not enough preparation for the concert to be held, so we have requested the organiser to arrange the event with full preparation,” said DMP Deputy Commissioner (media) Maruf Hossain Sorder.
