Attachments

A few days ago my newly passed SSC girl suddenly told me to buy a Teletalk Simcard. He said, now any student from any part of the country can apply for admission to any college by Teletalk sim. Then I remembered how difficult it would have been for us to apply for admission to college. We submitted the application to each college, and we submitted the form standing in line for hours after purchasing a separate form. There was no end to the cost and suffering. But nowadays it has become easy, the services have reached the doorstep of the people.

On the eve of the 9th National Parliament election, the Honorable Prime Minister announced the date of change as 'Digital Bangladesh'. Initially some people did not believe in digital Bangladesh, but some people suspected it and created suspicions. But the young generation of Bangladesh expressed their confidence in the matter with confidence. Digital Bangladesh is not a burden on the issue, rather it is a matter emerging from the grassroots. This is why Digital Bangladesh is not a myth, it has already been proved.

 
On November 11, 2010, the union information and service center, which is now known as Union Digital Center, started 4,547 unions in the country to take government service to the marginalized population.To empower women, it is compulsory to keep a woman entrepreneur with a man in every digital center. These services are available from computer composite to public and private schools and universities, information about admission forms, birth registration, insurance, mobile banking, soil testing for fertilizers and fertilizer recommendations, electricity bill payments, medical advice, and daily 60 types of services are available. . The passport and visa application process has started from recently selected digital centers. Mobile banking services launched at 3008 centers 20 lakh 22 thousand 436 workers in the country registering online at the digital center Meanwhile, there are women in a large number. As a result, the digital center has been formed as a grassroots hub of grassroots service. After the Union Parishad, the Digital Center was started in 407 Digital centers and 321 municipalities in 11 city corporations. According to the ICT Division and the A2i, every month 40 lakh people are taking services from these centers. According to the ATII, the entrepreneurs from the digital center have earned about Tk 140 crore.

 

43 thousand offices are now affiliated to the world's largest government website 'National Information Center'. More than 25,000 websites of Ministry, Department, Department, District, Upazila and Union have been added. These websites are known about various activities of the concerned office. On November 14, 2011, District E-Centers have been started in all the districts of the country. Of this, 8 lakh services have been provided through District E-Centers. Without the nuisance of the brokers, the service is available in three days from the e-services center, including the pitch.

E-Procurement has been introduced for contractors to submit online tender. Now many ministries are calling for online tenders online. This kind of initiative is being played to prevent tender trade. Mobile court management system has started to digitize the court proceedings. All documents of the mobile court are being kept online for use by the initiative launched in a small scale. All records of SA, CS, BRS and Khatian copies are being digitized by the Ministry of Land, District Administration and A2I Project jointly. Meanwhile, nearly five and a half million digitalis were digitized. The digital record room is going to be launched very soon. Of this, 23 lakhs of records have been provided in the digital system.

 

Public-e-filing system has been introduced to increase efficiency and transparency in the government offices and to speed up the performance of the work. At present, e-filing system has been started in 16 offices, divisional departments and 64 Deputy Commissioners' offices and divisional commissioner's office, including Prime Minister's Office. Tier-three data centers have been set up in the ICT division to preserve the digital data created by digitizing the government's various activities. One of the goals of the implementation of digital Bangladesh is the paper office which can ensure that the e-filing system.

The Service Innovation Fund has been created by the A2I initiative to encourage innovation and to transform the innovative concepts into reality. All types of organizations and individuals of Bangladesh can submit online at anytime of the year anytime of the year by reducing excessive steps for taking citizen services or using technology to reduce the amount of time, money and commute, in the form of time, money and commerce. Granted, a maximum of 25 lakh taka is given to the ideas selected through a neutral sorting method. A2I is working to implement 170 Innovative Concepts, including Talking Device for disabled people, through multimedia talk-books, online police clearance certificates, online environmental clearance, prevention of child marriage, age verification through mobile phones, and speech disability for service for the disabled students through the Service Innovation Fund. It has been developed by multimedia classrooms for teacher-students, creating multimedia content by teachers, teacher bathroom, e-book, monitoring dashboard and digital multimedia talking book, noting 'Information Technology Education but Information Technology in Education'. Teachers trained in this model are preparing useful content for the students using the class. It is possible to conduct student-centric class activities. Multimedia classrooms have been set up in 23,331 secondary and 15,000 primary schools. More than 1,80,000 teachers and 1,650 master-trainers have been trained to create multimedia content. Honorable Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina handed a Braille Book and Multimedia Talking Book to all digital level books of the primary level and visually impaired students at the official launch of the book distribution program for the students at Ganobhaban on 30 December, Due to the digitization of the Agricultural Extension Service, the AIII has created a 'Agricultural Portal' under the patronage of the Ministry of Agriculture for the purpose of reaching the expansion service to the farmers in an effective and easy way. Agricultural portal has been piloted and will be officially inaugurated soon. The Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, the Father of the Nation, took away the philosophical foundation of digital Bangladesh through a long struggle, whose independence was seen in the eyes of the nation. He showed the nation the dream of golden Bengal. In the same way, his worthy daughter, Honorable Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, has donated the nation to her election manifesto 'Charter of the Day of Change'. After 50 years of independence, a variant of Bangladesh will go in 2021 and in the election manifesto, it is named as 'Vision Vision 2021'. One of the goals of the Vision 2021 is 'Digital Bangladesh', which was the only dream in 2008, and today it is reality.
