Abstract

Union Digital Centers (UDCs) have changed not just how government services are delivered, but also how entrepreneurs (UDDOKTA) live. This study appraises the demographic status of entrepreneurs of Union Digital Centers in Bangladesh. This study is based on a mixed approach to social research. Data were collected from 45 entrepreneurs of 25 UDCs in the southern part of Bangladesh. This study found most of the entrepreneurs get appointed from local inhabitants with proper training though it has a chance of political influence but regular monitoring has occurred. The entrepreneurs are under the age of 30 with a standard educational background. The reasons for joining at UDCs are to generate income and to enter an independent profession. Among male and female entrepreneurs, the dropout rate is higher regarding female than male counterparts because of their pregnancy or after marital issues. The rate of availability of male entrepreneurs in UDCs is higher than the female counterparts. Although the income of the entrepreneurs has become higher than before joining, low-income generation by male Entrepreneurs is surely a concern if it becomes lower than expectation. However, authorities must take care of the entrepreneur’s issues so that they can serve the entire community.

Abstract

Abstract: This research looks at the possibilities and challenges of adopting a Citizen’s Charter in Paurashava. In this regard, introducing the Citizen Charter in government offices is a step forward. One Paurashava was selected as the study field to observe the current situation of Citizen’s Charter implementation and to recognize the problems in Citizen’s Charter implementation. This study is primarily qualitative in nature. Both primary and secondary sources of data were used. Besides, official records and other relevant documents were used as secondary sources. According to preliminary observations, the extent of Citizen Charter implementation in Paurashava is extremely poor. All of the services of thePaurashava are not covered by the Citizen’s Charter, and most citizens are unaware of it. A number of other problems also hamper the success of the Paurashava. Therefore, these factors constrain the successful implementation of the Citizens’ Charter at the Paurashava.
