Dhaka North City Corporation (Bengali: ঢাকা উত্তর সিটি কর্পোরেশন: in short-DNCC) is a local government authority responsible for administering all civic services in northern part of Dhaka, the capital of Bangladesh. The DNCC government is elected by popular vote every five years. The corporation is headed by a mayor, who oversees a council consisting of 72 councillors representing different wards of the city. The functions and powers of the DNCC are defined under the provisions of The City Corporation act, 2009.[1]

In 2022, the total population under the jurisdiction of the Dhaka North City Corporation was 5,990,723, which has given the city area a density of 30,531 per kilometer. Annisul Huq was the first mayor of the Dhaka North City Corporation, after being elected in April 2015.[2]

History

Dhaka North City Corporation was established on 29 November 2011. Prior to the establishment of the corporation, northern Dhaka was governed by the former Dhaka City Corporation. The Dhaka City Corporation was dissolved by the Local Government (City Corporation) Amendment Bill 2011 on 29 November 2011, passed in the Parliament of Bangladesh, and formally ceased to exist on 1 December 2011, following the President's approval,[3] making way for Dhaka North and Dhaka South city corporations.[4] The mayoral elections are non-partisan in nature. The first Dhaka North City Corporation elections were held on 28 April 2015, which saw the victory of Annisul Huq in the first political campaign of his career.[2]

On 9 May 2016, the government approved the expansion of Dhaka North City Corporation's jurisdiction to encompass eight unions: Beraid, Badda, Vatara (or Bhatara), Satarkul, Harirampur, Uttarkhan, Dakshinkhan, and Dumni.[5] This extension increased the area of the city corporation to 197 square kilometres (76 sq mi).[6]

In November 2017, Mayor Huq died on a trip to London, while visiting his daughter. In September previously, the local government ministry announced the creation of a panel of three senior elected councilors who will act as joint mayor while he was hospitalised.[7][8] In February 2019, Awami League candidate Atiqul Islam was elected as the new mayor of DNCC in a by-election.[9]
