The Deputy Commissioner has also instructed the Treasury officer to submit an audit report of the account of advertisement hoardings under the Dibrugarh Municipal Board immediately.

It has been alleged that during Congress rule DMB, such unauthorized hoardings came up in Dibrugarh town but they didn’t take any action to pull down such illegal hoardings. In 2015, full majority DMB was formed by BJP but it seems that they did not take any step to pull down such illegal hoardings.

According to a source, 75 percent of hoardings are illegal in Dibrugarh town and the DMB is not getting any revenue from it. Even the administration has not shown any interest in pulling down the illegal hoardings.
