very good office

The Department of Public Health Engineering is an important agency under the Department of Local Government. The Department of Public Health Engineering (DPHE) was established in the 5th year, with the responsibility of promoting public health through safe water supply. Subsequently, the responsibility of providing sanitation services was added to it. After the disappearance of Bangladesh's independence in the 5th, the government first emphasized the importance of rehabilitating the destroyed water supply and sanitation systems and subsequently started setting up new infrastructure through DPHE. Under this continuation, the department is entrusted with the responsibility of building and managing the safe water supply and sanitation system of the entire country except the area under WASA. Safe water and sanitation play an important role in protecting public health. The Department of Public Health Engineering is working tirelessly to provide safe water and sanitation facilities to the people. As a result, Bangladesh occupies one of the top destinations in the whole of South Asia in terms of safe water and sanitation coverage. Maintenance of various safe water sources (tubewells) and sanitary latrine installations in the rural areas is the main responsibility of the Department of Public Health Engineering. In addition, the Directorate provides technical assistance to the Union Council through the WATSAN Committee for the maintenance of rural water supply and sanitation infrastructure, strengthening health care and improving the environment of the surrounding environment. Municipal water supply and sanitation is increasing rapidly due to rapid urbanization. To meet this demand, the office is assisting in planning and institutional development under technical assistance including water supply and sanitation infrastructure of municipalities. In addition, it is implementing necessary measures to maintain safe water supply and sanitation system in case of emergencies caused by floods, cyclones, pandemics etc.
