Deputy commissioners or DCs from across the country are currently in Dhaka to attend a three-day conference.

“DCs will be provided with police personnel whenever they ask for them for operating mobile courts. They will have Ansar personnel as well,” Khan told reporters after wrapping up the conference at the secretariat on Thursday.

“The district heads have requested us to strengthen river, tourist and industrial police forces. They also recommended setting up more fire service stations,” he said.

Proposals for revamping jails and establishing drug rehabilitation centres were also made, he added.
