Though city corporation election has ended, the posters that adorn the street walls have not been removed as yet though the candidates were supposed to take them off.

However, the city corporation has begun work in this regard. How the posters will be destroyed was not specified by the city corporations.
In the city corporation elections, a total of 749 candidates took part and most used laminated posters. A report of Environment and Social Development Organisation (ESDO) has said that this election will produce 2,500 tonnes of plastic waste which will be devastating for the environment.
Before election, the mayor and councillor candidates pledged a pollution free Dhaka but no one removed posters after the polls.
On Sunday (Feb 2), the newly elected mayor of DSCC, Sheikh Fazle Noor Taposh, said: “I will request all elected councillors plus the workers to remove posters, festoons, banners by Monday.”
“We do not have equipment to destroy plastic but after taking over I will take initiative to import modern equipment to deal with plastic waste, assured Fazle Noor Taposh.
Elected mayor of DNCC, Atiqul Islam, added: “I am requesting all leaders, workers to remove posters and other materials.”
DNCC’s waste management official, SM Shafiqur Rahman, said: “We have begun removing the posters; we will recycle them and then take the waste to a landfill.”
Waste disposal adviser of DSCC, Khondokar Millatul Islam, added: “No candidate removed posters but we have begun the task and within three days the city will be clean.”
Earlier, on Jan 22, justices M Enayetur Rahim and Mostafizur Rahman gave an order to manufacture and display laminated posters. In the ruling, the court asked why the making of laminated posters should not be banned.
