Which local government does Mr Rafiq head?

Think it through first, then pick an option.

  1. a Hill District Council
  2. b District Council
  3. c Upazila Council
  4. d Union Council
Answer and explanation

Correct answer: b District Council

The Act of 6 July 2000 created District Councils with 1 + 15 + 5 = 21 members.

Why the other options are wrong

  • a Hill District Council: Hill District Councils are separate; the 2000 Act does not apply to the three hill districts.
  • c Upazila Council: The Upazila Council was introduced in 1983.
  • d Union Council: A Union Council has 13 members. The answer is: District Council.
