President M Abdul Hamid today asked the deputy commissioners (DCs) to remain watchful to prevent abuse of power while discharging their respective duties as the district co-coordinator and supervisor of the multi-faceted activities of the government.
"Keep away from corruption... Monitor strictly so that others cannot get the opportunity to indulge in corruption," the President told the DCs as they gathered at the Bangabhaban here on Thursday evening on the third day of the 'DC Conference-2023'.
Mentioning corruption as a key barrier to the ongoing development, he said sustainable development is being hindered due to graft and the system of transparency and accountability must develop at every level of the field administration.
The Head of the State said, "I hope you (DCs) will consciously maintain the distinction of responsibility and power in the workplace."
The President called upon the DCs to work earnestly to build an advanced, modern and IT-based "Smart Bangladesh" under the efficient leadership of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina to build the “Sonar Bangla” envisioned by the Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman.
