Government / The Administration

The elected political leaders govern Bangladesh with the aid of a permanent bureaucracy. The ministers remain at the helm of ministries or divisions which are manned by civil servants recruited by the Public Service Commission. The ministries perform regulatory policy-making functions while the numerous subordinate offices execute Government policies and decisions at the field level. With the democratization of polity and a popularly elected government in office, the administration is now striving to be accountable and transparent.

The country is divided into six administrative divisions namely Dhaka, Chittagong, Rajshahi, Khulna, Barisal and Sylhet, each of which composed of districts. There are 64 districts, which are in turn divided into thanas. There are 490 thanas each divided into unions, mouzas and villages at the lowest level.

Customer's satisfaction is of our high priority.
