The OCAG is focused on modernizing its auditing infrastructure and improving institutional credibility through digital-first financial oversight.
CAG Md. Nurul Islam directed the full implementation of an online pension tracking system to enhance transparency.
The World Bank approved the $250 million SITA project to modernize OCAG digital infrastructure and auditing capabilities.
CAG Md. Nurul Islam emphasized the role of automated systems in public financial management during SITA project discussions.
First statutorily recognised 28 February 1972 via President's Order No. 15; first CAG appointed 11 May 1973. The office is constitutionally independent: Article 128(4) bars any other person or authority from directing the Auditor General's exercise of functions. Md. Nurul Islam is the 13th CAG; appointed 13 July 2023 by gazette, assumed office 26 July 2023 for a five-year term; BCS (Audit & Accounts) cadre, 8th batch; previously Controller General of Accounts. The official website is listed in government directories as both cag.org.bd and cagbd.gov.bd (the .gov.bd domain is the canonical government address per task specification). Staff count and OCAG-specific budget line are not publicly disaggregated in available national budget documents; the finance division budget page for CAG exists (mof.portal.gov.bd) but granular allocation not retrieved. The Public Audit Ordinance 2025, enacted by the 13th Parliament in April 2026, is a landmark reform but drew TIB criticism for excluding revenue audits from CAG scope and requiring government approval for international agreements (Sections 17-18) -- a structural constraint on independence that the OCAG has not publicly contested. The Rooppur 'pillow scam' (Tk 36.4 crore) surfaced in the FY2021-22 audit cycle and has led to ACC summons against 33 officials and arrests of at least 13, demonstrating an unusually high post-audit enforcement response in the new government era.
