The government of Bangladesh has approved a policy decision to introduce ration benefits for government employees in grades 12 to 20, aiming to ease financial pressure caused by rising living costs. The Finance Division and the Cabinet Division have already given their consent, and implementation activities are underway. The decision follows prolonged discussions and was initiated after a proposal from the Pirojpur Deputy Commissioner at the May 3 District Commissioners’ Conference.
According to officials, many lower- and mid-level government employees have been struggling with inflation and relying on loans to manage expenses. The ration plan seeks to reduce living costs, ease mental stress, and improve work efficiency. The Cabinet Division instructed ministries to report monthly progress by the 10th of each month and to present an overall review after three months. Public administration experts welcomed the move as timely and positive but urged strict oversight to prevent irregularities and ensure genuine beneficiaries receive the support.
Currently, ration benefits are available to members of the armed forces, police, BGB, Ansar, prison, fire service, NSI, SSF, ACC, and narcotics control departments.
