CHATTOGRAM: The Chattogram district administration recovered some five acres of land demolishing illegal structures from the proposed site for Burn Unit beside the Chattogram Medical College Hospital (CMCH) on Tuesday.

Executive Magistrate Masud Rana carried out the drive in the Goachi Bagan area since the morning.

The magistrate said over 300 tin-roofed structures were evicted during the drive.

The authority of the CMCH issued notice several times to the encroachers to remove the structures earlier, he said.

As they didn’t remove the structures, they carried out the drive on Tuesday, said the magistrate.   

Chattogram City Corporation and Chattogram Metropolitan Police assisted the drive.

Mentionable, a 150-bed Burn Unit will be developed in the area with the financial assistance from China.
