The authority of Dhaka North City Corporation (DNCC) removed 13,234 tonnes of wastes of sacrificial animals by 1:00pm today.

As many as 9,500 cleaners worked for disposal of the wastes from yesterday.

“DNCC cleaners removed the animal wastes from the slaughtering spots and residences in the city corporation areas by 1:00pm today,” DNCC Mayor Md Atiqul Islam told a press conference at the DNCC Bhaban at Gulshan here.

He said they are pondering to use the animal wastes for power generation instead of dumping those in the coming days.

Some 273 spots were fixed for slaughtering of the sacrificial animals, he said adding that this year the number of slaughtering of animals in the designated spots has increased compared to the previous years.
