Mayor of Chattogram City Corporation (CCC) AJM Nasir Uddin has said that politics’ another name is sacrifice. Politicians should sacrifice themselves for the welfare of the people. It is for neither enjoyment nor luxury. The politicians should be generous and benevolent for the people, he also said. 

The CCC Mayor said these while exchanging Eid greetings with the leaders of the City Awami Jubo League at the CCC conference room of Tigerpass on Wednesday afternoon. He urged them to devote themselves for the welfare of the people.

AJM Nasir Uddin said that there has been an outbreak of dengue disease across the country in recent times. However, due to the CCC's public awareness and rigorous surveillance in the Chattogram City Corporation area and conducting mosquito repellent activities, positive success has been achieved. As a result, the outbreak of Dengue in Chattogram has been unlike in other areas. In addition, CCC is providing patients with free blood tests including a variety of services, he added. 

To protect the balance of the environment, the Mayor urged the leaders and workers of Jubo League to plant more trees. He said political leaders and activists must be dedicated to the service of the people. Otherwise, people will forget us.

He also urged the leaders to strengthen the organisation at the grassroots level by practicing public and welfare politics.
