Ministry of Industry Bangladesh | MOIND


Hello Readers,
This is a review post about the official web portal of The Ministry of Industries (MOIND) of the Peoples Republic of Bangladesh.

As per the info provided on the portal: An important objective of creating this website is to disseminate the useful information relating to industries, so that the foreign investors as well as local entrepreneur / stakeholders can learn about the services of MOIND through online.

A little about the Ministry:
The Ministry of Industries is located at the Motijheel commercial area in Dhaka city. Before the liberation war (1971), there was a department of Commerce and Industries in Dhaka, then the provincial capital. After independence of Bangladesh a new Ministry was created by the Govt. as the Ministry of Commerce and Industries in 1972. The ministry was shifted from Bangladesh Secretariat to the present place in 1978. Afterward it was divided into 3 Ministries:

  • Ministry of Commerce
  • Ministry of Industries
  • Ministry of Textile and Jute

Board of Investment and Privatization commission came out as separate entities in 1989 and 2000 respectively from the Ministry of Industries. There are four corporations, 6 directorate / institutions and one Accreditation Board working under the ministry of Industries. The ministry supervises and coordinates the activities, policy matters and administrative affairs of these organizations in conformity with the existing laws, rules and regulations.

The Ministry of Industries carries out some functions through its six wings. The Wings are:
  • Administration and Co-ordination
  • Autonomous Bodies
  • Audit and Department
  • Privatization (Disinvestment) Laws and International Co-operation
  • Research and Development
  • Planning.

Responsibilities:
Ministry of Industries is primarily responsible for developing new policies, ideas and strategies for promotion, expansion and sustainable development of Industrial sector of the Bangladesh. Given the present environment and increasing trend in globalization, the private sector is playing an important role in the industrialization of the country. The Ministry of Industries has taken the role of a facilitator with a view to creating increased industrial activities in the country.

The official web portal of the Ministry of Industry provides some basic information about the structure of this Ministry, activities of the Ministry. Just like other Govt. portals, this site also published other govt. websites of the country.

This site will help all concerned understand the way, in which the Ministry of Industry is functioning and the efforts exerted by the Ministry towards fulfilling the hopes and aspirations of the citizen of Bangladesh and above all its towards our national growth and economic development.

That’s some basic info I have collected about the MOIND BD – Ministry Of Industries, Bangladesh.

Thanks a lot for reading this.
