Govt to form six commissions for reforms

The government has initially decided to form six commissions to accomplish reforms.

Chief Adviser Professor Muhammad Yunus on Wednesday urged the people to cooperate with the interim government to implement reforms.

The Chief Adviser said six eminent citizens have been appointed to head these commissions. 

Dr Badiul Alam Majumdar will act as the head of electoral system reform commission while Sarfaraz Chowdhury as head of police administration reform commission, Justice Shah Abu Naeem Mominur Rahman as head of judiciary reform commission, Dr. Iftekharuzzaman as head of the anti-corruption reform commission, Abdul Muyeed Chowdhury as head of public administration reform commission and Dr Shahdeen Malik as head of constitution reform commission.

After this, the government will continue the process of formation of commissions on various other issues, he added.

The reform of these institutions will also contribute to establishing a public ownership-based, accountable and welfare-oriented state system, Yunus hoped.
