Bangladesh authorities completed drafting the 2025 Police Commission Ordinance this week, with plans to submit it to the Advisory Council shortly for approval. The measure, developed by a panel under Law, Justice and Parliamentary Affairs adviser Asif Nazrul, aims to enhance police transparency, professionalism and public confidence. This effort fulfills a pledge from the July National Charter endorsed by political groups nationwide.

The proposed commission would be chaired by a retired Supreme Court justice holding a rank equal to an Appellate Division judge. Six additional members would be a retired district judge, a senior government official, a former high-ranking police officer, a past Police Academy head, an academic specializing in law or criminology, and a human rights advocate with 15 years of experience. All appointments carry four-year terms without renewal. Government agencies must execute commission directives within three months or explain delays immediately. A seven-member selection panel, including judicial and political representatives, will propose candidates within 30 days. The ordinance also defines commission operations, accountability protocols and police leadership selection rules.
