Aspire to Innovate (a2i) has launched the second version (Framework 2.0) of the National Information Portal, Bangladesh.gov.bd, to make government information management more modern, dynamic, and secure. The announcement was made on Tuesday, April 7, 2026, through a press release. Implementation of the new version began on December 21, 2025, across ministries under the supervision of the Cabinet Division and the ICT Division. Currently, around 52,000 government offices are connected to the system, with over 35,500 websites already hosted on the new platform.

The new version has been verified and certified by the Software and Hardware Quality Testing and Certification Center for its functionality and security. According to project officials, the upgraded portal will strengthen Bangladesh’s digital service system, ensuring greater transparency, accountability, and easier access to public information. Citizens can now access government service details, application processes, required documents, and office addresses from home, along with tenders, job circulars, and citizen charters.

Technically, the platform now includes a cloud- and microservice-based architecture, making it faster, more stable, and scalable. Enhanced security features such as single sign-on, two-factor authentication, and SSL encryption have also been added.
