The Ministry of Housing and Public Works has instructed the Directorate of Internal Audit to conduct a comprehensive audit of all income- and expenditure-related activities of the Capital Development Authority, or Rajdhani Unnayan Kartripakkha (Rajuk), spanning from 2009 to 2024.
This includes transactions related to plot and flat allocations, transfers, and associated financial operations, according to a press release issued today and signed by Md Alamgir Hossain, public relations officer of the ministry.
The directive, issued in line with Sections 2(a), (b), (c), and (d) of the Internal Audit Directorate’s Allocation of Functions and its Charter of Duties, follows a decision made by the ministry’s Budget Management Committee on April 23, 2025, it added.
