Staff Reporter:
The Anti-Corruption Prevention Committees (ACPCs), localized civic bodies established by the Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC), are being expanded to the union level to strengthen anti-corruption awareness and social resistance against corruption.
This new initiative has been included in the proposed 2026–27 fiscal year budget for the activities of the Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC).
According to relevant officials, ACPCs are currently operating at the metropolitan, district, and upazila levels across the country.
Under the new decision, the program will be extended to the union level from the upcoming fiscal year. It is expected that establishing committees at the grassroots level will significantly broaden anti-corruption activities nationwide.
ACC officials and leaders of anti-corruption organizations believe that forming committees at the union level will increase public participation in anti-corruption initiatives.
