The Ministry of Religious Affairs has launched an investigation into allegations of distributing low-quality textbooks and widespread irregularities in the mosque-based child and mass education project run by the Islamic Foundation. The probe follows a report from the National Security Intelligence (NSI), which prompted the ministry to form a three-member committee led by Additional Secretary Imtiaz Hossain. The committee held a meeting on Sunday and is expected to submit its findings within ten working days.
According to the NSI report, serious corruption and financial irregularities occurred in the Islamic Foundation’s printing press, including violations of tender conditions, use of substandard paper, under-supply of materials, and alleged embezzlement of about 28.4 million taka through collusion with contractors. The report also noted that centralizing paper procurement under the printing press created opportunities for misconduct.
Complaints have emerged from various centers about poor-quality books and notebooks, particularly the use of inferior paper in drawing books and wasteful use of materials. The ongoing investigation is expected to clarify the extent of these irregularities.
