Ministry of Posts, Telecommunications and Information Technology

Minister holds a dual portfolio: (1) Ministry of Posts, Telecommunications and Information Technology (covering Posts and Telecommunications Division, ICT Division, BTRC, Bangladesh Post Office, Bangladesh Submarine Cable Company, Bangladesh Telecommunications Company Ltd, Teletalk Bangladesh Ltd) and (2) Ministry of Science and Technology -- both under a single cabinet minister, consistent with BNP election manifesto. The ministry website mopt.gov.bd is the umbrella; operating divisions have separate portals at ptd.gov.bd and ictd.gov.bd. The Nagad forensic audit (initiated November 2024 by Bangladesh Bank under the interim government) is a Bangladesh Bank-led matter, not a MOPT action; it concerns Nagad's status as a Bangladesh Post Office subsidiary and MFS licence regularisation -- MOPT has indirect institutional interest as Bangladesh Post Office falls under Posts and Telecommunications Division. ICT export actual FY2024-25 ($724.6 million) was verified against TBS reporting; no claim made about specific NBR-Nagad tax audit, as no primary source confirmed such an action within the 90-day window. annual_budget_bdt set to null as no ministry-specific budget allocation figure was retrievable from FY2025-26 documents; the broader Transport and Communication sector ADP allocation (Tk 58,973 crore) is not disaggregated by ministry. Verification based on 2+ primary sources for all key claims. Activity evidence hold: removed 3 exact generated refresh event(s) on read.
