The anti-corruption complaints portal Ghush.site has received 804 reports in its first two days of operation, with alleged irregularities valued at Tk136.5 million, signalling strong public engagement with the government's digital anti-graft initiative.
The platform, designed to streamline corruption complaints and improve transparency in the complaint-filing process, has processed reports spanning various sectors and administrative levels across the country. The volume of submissions underscores persistent public concerns about corrupt practices in government and private institutions.
Authorities managing the portal are reviewing all registered complaints for verification and preliminary assessment. The platform aims to provide citizens with a secure, documented channel for reporting suspected graft while protecting complainant identities and enabling systemic investigation of corruption allegations.
The high intake of complaints within 48 hours of launch reflects citizens' demand for accessible anti-corruption mechanisms. Officials have urged the public to continue using the platform while cautioning that all submissions will undergo due verification before any formal action is initiated.
The initiative represents part of Bangladesh's broader efforts to strengthen institutional accountability and combat systemic corruption through technology-enabled governance mechanisms.
