The Directorate of Secondary and Higher Education (DSHE) of Bangladesh has issued a strict warning to all teachers, students, and staff under its jurisdiction regarding the use of Facebook and other social media platforms. In an urgent circular dated December 24, the Ministry of Education emphasized that any violation of existing social media policies or the newly enacted Cyber Security Ordinance 2025 will be treated as a serious offense. According to officials, the directive aims to maintain discipline in digital spaces and safeguard national security. The notice referenced the 2019 revised guidelines for social media use in government institutions and reiterated the government’s ‘zero tolerance’ stance toward cybercrime. It explicitly prohibits provocative posts, rumor-spreading, or any activity that could harm institutional reputation. Heads of educational institutions have been tasked with ensuring compliance, while authorities confirmed that teachers’ and students’ online activities will be regularly monitored. Violators may face departmental and legal action, with no leniency in the enforcement of the Cyber Security Ordinance 2025.
