Elections provide a test of the political system in any country. Electoral rules and regulations set out legal constraints on the electoral process about what to do and not to do. The absence of any effective regulation contributes to a system in which parties and candidates are free to conduct business whatever they wish. Regulatory framework and its enforcement in Bangladesh challenge the credibility of election processes. In the research findings, it was concluded that a weak regulatory framework as well as its enforcement negatively affects the election process in order to ensure a free and fair election in Bangladesh. ; Seçimler her ülkede politik sistemi teste tabii tutarlar.

Chapter 1 Innovation and Service Delivery: Conceptual and Contextual Framework -- Chapter 2 Striving for a Digital Bangladesh and Service Delivery -- Chapter 3: Digital Innovations in Public Administration and Public Service Delivery in Bangladesh -- Chapter 4 Human Resource Capacity and Changes in Public Sector Organizations in Bangladesh -- Chapter 5: Innovation in Healthcare Delivery Systems and Processes in Bangladesh -- Chapter 6: Civil Society Engagement in Good Governance and Sustainable Development in Bangladesh -- Chapter 7: People's Participation in Bangladesh: Innovations in Mechanisms, Practices, and Challenges.

This book adopts the multidimensional nature of innovation as its point of focus and offers a comprehensive analysis of contemporary governance issues in Bangladesh. Each chapter views those issues from its own disciplinary perspective, but all share a common focus on the current process in the governance of innovation. The authors show how the processes of innovation and public service delivery are influenced while there is simultaneously a striving for a digital Bangladesh. The book presents innovation as a complex phenomenon with multidisciplinary viewpoints affecting its governance. As well, new practices, developments, and empirical research are shown here. The aim is to point out the most persistent difficulties in public administration and public service delivery, with an emphasis on how to deliver public service in Bangladesh in a sustainable manner. Although significant transformations have been made recently for a better organized public sphere, public services still must be more closely in line with what citizens need rather than what service providers are prepared to deliver. This published work speaks strongly to a wide-ranging audience, from scholars of governance and innovation management to academics, researchers, and postgraduate students interested in public service delivery innovations in Bangladesh and South Asia. Indeed, the book serves as a text and valuable resource for postgraduate courses in politics, business administration, economics, political science, development, and governance in South Asia.

AbstractA caste is one of the conventional four social strata into which Hindu society seperates its members. The scriptures from ancient India make reference to it. The four classes are the Brahmins (priestly people), the Kshatriyas (rulers, administrators, and warriors; also known as Rajanyas), the Vaishyas (artisans, merchants, businessmen, and farmers), and the Shudras are the lowest of the caste system (laboring classes). However, an individual of the lowest class in traditional Indian society falls outside of the Hindu caste system and is subject to severe social restrictions. This commentary is divided into three parts; the first part highlights the caste system, the second part examines the constitutional and legislative safeguards for them, and the third part illustrates the current social disparity of Dalits in India.

AbstractBangladesh has consistently claimed an equitable distribution of Teesta river water sharing. However, it consistently has a lower use and share than India. This qualitative article investigates the issues to the unresolved Teesta water agreement which challenges to transboundary water management between the two riparian countries. The political debates between India and Bangladesh and how riparian water rights are understood in light of the international law are the scope of this article. This article also uses and exemplifies global empirical pieces of evidence to relate to the case of Teesta water sharing. In the findings, this article highlights a new quest of water diplomacy for sustainable Teesta water sharing. These questions are discussed and debated throughout the article. The methodology of this article is confined to two sources: primary data from international conventions, laws, regulations, and court judgments; and secondary data, which are gathered from journals, newspapers, websites, periodicals, dissertations, research reports, and other documents related to the research topic. The descriptive and suggestive nature of the qualitative data analysis method has been highlighted.
