Citizen�s charter for improved public service delivery and accountability: the experience of land administration at the local government in Bangladesh - 2018 - p.226-237.



Improved public service delivery and accountability have increasingly turned out to be important issues in public sector management. In Bangladesh, there has been noteworthy progress, including the introduction of citizen�s charter since 2008. This article explores the contribution of citizen�s charter in improving public service delivery and accountability at the local government land administration, adopting a qualitative longitudinal study. Analysis of the findings reveals that most of the service recipients are ignorant about the charter even after 8�years of its introduction. The charters are mainly producer dominated and their grand rhetorics are far away to achieve in reality. - Reproduced.
