Finance Minister AMA Muhith is expected to launch the project as the chief guest at a function on October 25 at Radisson Blu Dhaka Water Garden hotel in the capital, he added.

Planning Minister AHM Mustafa Kamal will preside at the function while State Minister for Finance and Planning MA Mannan, Country Director of the World Bank (WB) for Bangladesh Qimiao Fan and Director of the WB Governance Global Practice Vinay Sharma will be present as special guests.

DIMAPP will support the Implementation Monitoring and Evaluation Division (IMED) under the Ministry of Planning to monitor the execution of the Annual Development Programme (ADP) by digitally connecting all public sector organisations, combined with a nationwide expansion of the e-GP system.
