Allocations are budgets, not spending.

Press facts, checked against data
1 fact from the published daily advisor: 0 differ from the data, 0 agree, 1 have no series to check against.
Active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), excipients, auxiliary materials, packaging supplies, and medical devices require quantity, price, and regulatory approvals from the Directorate General of Drug Administration (DGDA) prior to import.
The Business Standard, 25 Aug 2026 · in the advisor of 27 Aug 2026
Claims as reported in the press and summarised in BDPolicyLab's daily Policy Advisor; not official statistics unless source_class is official. Data check: the press figure against the official series for the same quantity and period. Agrees within 2% of the official value; otherwise differs, gap = press minus official. No series: no reviewed rule places the claim on an official series, so no verdict is given.
Press coverage
Named in 5 articles since November 2020; number 135 among bodies in the last 12 months.
0 articles from October 2025 to September 2026, against 0 in the 12 months before.
Months with an article: November 2020 (2 articles of 738), November 2021 (1 article of 969), November 2023 (1 article of 1,036).
The total counts every outlet in the corpus. The 12-month comparison, shares and spikes use The Daily Star (business pages before 2026) and Prothom Alo English from 2018, so they measure attention within that corpus, not the whole press. Company press releases are left out throughout. A spike is a month at least three standard deviations above the body's previous 24 months. Bodies are matched by name or acronym in the headline and summary.

Dated facts: none held for this body. Only facts with a date printed in a primary document: the act date on bdlaws.minlaw.gov.bd, Bangladesh Gazette decisions published 2026-04-06 to 2026-09-17 (one parser's reading, not yet checked by a second), and, read by two readers, the amendment notes of Schedule I of the Rules of Business (revised up to February 2024) and the long title of the Act that establishes a body. Postings from Part II of the weekly Gazette 2015-2026 are one reader's reading (agy Gemini) checked by a code gate against the stored page; `readers` says whether a blind second reader agreed. No dated evidence is held for this body. State over time
