Department of Textiles

Director General Md Nuruzzaman confirmed by Wikipedia infobox (cross-checked via Daily Sun reference to DG Nuruzzaman chairing a stakeholder consultation at DoT conference room); head_since is null because the precise appointment date is not available from open sources. Established year 1978 is cross-checked across Wikipedia and Ministry of Textiles and Jute sources. The DoT issues two licence types under the Textile Industry (Registration and One-Stop Service Centre) Rules 2021 (made under Textile Act 2018): a proposed licence valid for two years pre-production and an existing licence post-production commencement; environmental clearance and fire safety licence are mandatory pre-conditions. The DoT administers 41 textile vocational institutes (source: Wikipedia/Textile schools in Bangladesh, cross-checked via search results referencing individual TVI websites under dot.gov subdomains) and 10 BUTEX-affiliated government textile engineering colleges with 1,200 total B.Sc seats. The Darwani Textile Mills PPP tender was floated by BTMC (the sponsoring authority under MoTJ), not directly by DoT; DoT's role in that process is as the mill registration/licensing clearance authority once the mill resumes commercial production. annual_budget_bdt is null: no separate DoT budget line is published in accessible FY2025-26 national budget documents. staff_count is null: not disaggregated in any open source. activity_score 5 reflects a department active in licensing administration and institute oversight but not a daily news figure.
