social and political unrest , making it difficult for the government to attract
investment . Thus corruption hinders the economic growth in Bangladesh.In
2021,there were reports of corruption in the procurement of equipment and supplies
for the ministry of agriculture. The led to a reduction in availability of essential
supplies for farmer and a decrease in agricultural productivity affecting the countries
food security and economic growth.In 2022,The Bangladesh Public Service
Commission (BPSC) was criticized for corruption in the selection of candidates for
the civil service making it difficult for the government to attract and retrain top talent
and undermining its ability to promote eco growth and stability.So, in order to
accelerate the economic growth of the country , first of all the administrative sector of
the country should be made free of corruption.

economic growth of Bangladesh. The government must take strong measures to
combat corruption and increase transparency and accountability in all areas related
to our economy. This includes strengthening the legal and regulatory framework ,
increasing the independence of regulatory bodies and promoting a culture of
accountability and transparency . By addressing corruption, Bangladesh can create
more stable and predictable business environment as well as promote economic
growth in Bangladesh.
