The interim government extended the tenure of six reform commissions tasked with submitting reform proposals on Bangladesh constitution, police, judiciary, Election Commission, public administration and Anti-Corruption Commission.
A Cabinet Division notice issued on Thursday said that the proposal submission deadline of the public administration reform commission, police reform commission, electoral reform commission, constitution reform commission, and ACC reform commission was extended until January 15.
The judiciary reform commission鈥檚 deadline, however, was extended until January 31, said Mahmudul Hussain Khan, secretary (coordination and reforms) at the Cabinet Division.
After the fall of Sheikh Hasina-led regime on August 5 last year, the Muhammad Yunus-led interim government on October 3 formed five reform commissions on public administration, judiciary, police, election commission, and Anti-Corruption Commission. The Constitution Reform Commission was formed on October 7.
The first five reform commissions and the constitution reform commission were asked to submit their reform proposals to the chief adviser by December 31 and January 7 respectively.
Although the commissions鈥� chiefs earlier told 抖阴精品 that they wanted to stick to the deadlines, none of them submitted their reports in due time.
鈥楾he extensions aim to provide the necessary time for the commissions to complete their tasks and submit their final reform proposals,鈥� said Mahmudul.
Earlier, despite setting for submitting reports, none of the six reform commissions鈥攐n the constitution, election, judiciary, anti-corruption commission, police and public administration鈥攈ad submitted their reports on Tuesday.
On that day, the cabinet division said that the commissions had extended their deadlines.
