BanglaPress Desk: A decision has been made to recommend the establishment of a new police station, 'Mokamtala Police Station,' by bifurcating the existing Shibganj Police Station in Bogura. This decision was reached during a meeting of the 'Pre-NICAR' (National Implementation Committee for Administrative Reform) secretary-level committee, held at the Secretariat on the afternoon of November 9. If implemented, this will become the 654th police station in the country. Previously, in July, the formation of 'Halda Police Station'—the country's 653rd—was approved through the bifurcation of the Hathazari Upazila in Chattogram.
It is understood that a total of seven proposals—covering the creation of new police stations and municipalities, the establishment of police investigation centers, the renaming of police stations, and the restructuring of two government organizations—were reviewed during the meeting. Decisions were reached on all seven: four were recommended for approval, one was rejected, and observations were provided for the remaining two.
Specifically, the meeting decided to recommend the establishment of a police investigation center at Matrai Bazar in Kalai (Joypurhat), the renaming of Pagla Police Station (Mymensingh) to Dakshin Gafargaon Police Station, the formation of a new municipality in Jaintiapur (Sylhet), and the creation of Mokamtala Police Station by bifurcating the Shibganj Police Station (Bogura).
