When city residents are struggling to manage ambulances or mortuary vans to carry patients to hospitals or dead bodies to graveyards, the ambulances and mortuary vans of the two city corporations of Dhaka are lying idle.
DSCC and DNCC officials said that the vehicles, meant for use for health service, have remained in the warehouses due to lack of necessary manpower and a guideline for management of the service.
Record shows that some 10 ambulances and four mortuary vans were bought for carrying patients and dead bodies under Urban Resilience Project. The vehicles were handed over to the authorities of the two city corporations in February 2019.
