The Trading Corporation of Bangladesh (TCB), which sells subsidized goods across the country, has sent out 5.7 million Smart Family Cards to district administrations and city corporations. An additional 600,000 cards are being printed, with data collection ongoing for 1.5 million more cards. The cards are provided free of charge to eligible consumers. Local administrations and city corporations are responsible for selecting beneficiaries, collecting data, and monitoring the distribution of goods. The interim government has started this card distribution initiative, following the cancellation of 10 million cards due to irregularities during the previous administration.
