Ward No.24 Office of Dhaka City Corporation is situated at Tilpapara, Khilgaon just within 100 yards of Tilpapara Mosque in the northeast Everyday thousands of city dwellers pass by this office either on foot or by transports since it stands on the Tilpapara-Goran Road. The visitors from the foreign countries might be pleased seeing the site of the office with the understanding that the city dwellers quickly get service from the said office in question. But the reality is a different to some extent For the last few days, the drains on both sides of the road in front of the Ward Office have been overflowing with excreta, urine and other garbage creating a very obnoxious environment It is never believable that no responsible person of the Ward Office has noticed it Surely someone has seen it

The dwellers of South Goran, Tarabagh, Provatibagh and Tilpapara hoped that DCC would take immediate step to remove the obstruction to restore normal flow of drain water. But unfortunately their expectation remained unfulfilled due to negligence of duties on the part of DCC and its ward Office.
