Bangladesh’s defense and law enforcement sectors play a crucial role in maintaining national security and public order. The Bangladesh Armed Forces, consisting of the Army, Navy, and Air Force, protect the country from external threats, while the Border Guard Bangladesh (BGB) secures borders. Law enforcement agencies like the Bangladesh Police and Rapid Action Battalion (RAB) focus on maintaining internal peace, combating crime, and countering terrorism. Despite their efforts, challenges such as corruption, inadequate resources, and training gaps persist, affecting effectiveness.
Solutions
Improving resource allocation for defense and law enforcement agencies is vital. Enhanced training programs, modernization of equipment, and better coordination between agencies can strengthen security. Addressing corruption, implementing transparent practices, and enhancing community policing will improve trust and effectiveness in law enforcement.
