Uttara West Thana (Bengali: উত্তরা পশ্চিম থানা) is a thana of Bangladesh situated in Sector 11 of Uttara, Dhaka.[1]
This thana was established on 4 September 2012 to decrease the responsibility of former Uttara Thana (present name Uttara East Thana).[2]
Its total area is 8 square kilometres (3.1 sq mi). This thana is formed by Abdullahpur, Bawnia, Kamarpara, Batulia, Roashdia and Sector 3, 5, 7, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14 of the town.[3]
After establishment of the new thana, the government rented a building as there was no land to construct a police station building for the area. But as the building is located inside a residential area of the thana, the new police station building is inadequate, causing difficulties in the operation of the police station. Besides, traffic jams are created around the police station building. For this, the Uttara Welfare Society protested in 2022 demanding the construction of a new building on 30 katha land in Sonargaon Janapath and shifting it there. Mohammad Habib Hasan, Jatiya Sangsad member of Dhaka-18 constituency, sent a DO letter to the then Capital Development Authority chairman Anisur Rahman Miah on 19 October 2022, recommending in favor of the demand.[4]
