Thana Development Coordination Committee

In 1993, the BNP government formed Thana Development Coordination Committee after abolishing the upazila system.^{[9][3][4][5][6][10]}

After the Awami League came back to power in 2009, TDCC was practically non-existent.^[9]

Thana Development Coordination Committee, which was a significant part of local governance, was composed of union council chairmen and government officials.^{[9][3][11][12][13][14]}

The Thana Development Coordination Committee was formed for regional development, decentralization and improving local projects and coordination in thanas.^{[1][9][3][2][7][15]} The council had presence in all administrative thanas of Bangladesh back then and replaced sub-district and thana councils.^{[16][17][4][6]}
