The Bangladesh National Information Window is under the auspices of the Cabinet Department of the Government of the People's Republic of Bangladesh under the A2I (Access to Information) program to ensure the right of the people to access information and services provided by government departments in the country. An integrated version of the website of the government department or web portal. Bangladesh National Information Window was launched last June to make various services of the government easily accessible to the people with the help of digital technology. The world's largest digital web portal has been launched in Bangladesh as part of the government's efforts to bring government services to the doorsteps of the people. Its name is Bangladesh National Information Window (www.bangladesh.gov.bd). Inaugurating the portal on June 23, Sajeeb Wazed Joy, IT adviser to the Prime Minister, said, "We have verified that there are no 25,000 government websites in one place in any other country in the world." There is only one in Bangladesh now. 'More than 50,000 government officials have been trained to enter information into the information window. The Access to Information (A2I) program was responsible for planning and implementing it. It is better to say that the website www.bangladesh.gov.bd was there before. However, its scope was less then. It was further said in the inauguration ceremony that this information window is viewed by 1.5 million people every day. On the night of July 23, Alexa (www.alexa.com), a ranking and popularity verification website, ranked 242th among the websites visited from Bangladesh. The government wants the country's citizens to use the national information window as a 'one-stop service' to access information on agriculture, education, health, law, tourism, etc. It is said that notifications of educational institutions, gazettes, e-services, government forms, citizen charters, lists of officials of various government institutions, more than seven lakh e-directories, lists of freedom fighters, government development activities, names, addresses, phone numbers of public representatives, etc. Information can be found at Batayan. 4,550 at Union level, 14,480 at Upazila level, 4032 at District level, 455 at Division level, 64 at District Council level, 48 at Upazila Parishad level, 55 at Ministry-Division level, 345 at Department level and City Corporation. And 414 municipal level websites have been integrated to create a national information window. There is even an English version of it to introduce Bangladesh to the world, which is commendable. However, there are discrepancies between the Bengali and English versions in providing information. For example, the front page of the Bengali version reads: ‘Under the national window, the construction of about 25,000 web portals (information windows) has been completed for all unions, upazilas, districts, divisions, directorates, ministries and all government departments. With the launch of the portal in all the departments, it will be easier for the people to get information and services. 'On the other hand, the English version says that more than 25,000 portals have been created which are in trial (beta version).
