Message

I am happy to know that the Community Report of Bogra Zila is going to be published by Bangladesh
Bureau of Statistics (BBS) on the basis of the result of Population and Housing Census 2011 to meet
the requirements of data users at the national and sub-national levels. This report is one of the 64 Zila
Community Reports of the country.

I believe that the data presented in the report will provide quality benchmark database to public
representatives, policy makers, planners, researchers, administrators, development partners and
other government and non-government agencies for formulating and implementing plans and
programs. This will also help in prioritization of resource allocation according to population density
and other socio-economic characteristics of the population.

I express my heartfelt thanks to the Secretary, Statistics and Informatics Division (SID) for her
effective guidance and significant role in implementing the census operation and other procedures.
Finally, I would like to thank the Director General, BBS and officials of SID and BBS who actively
helped in implementing the census activities, processing of census data and preparation of this report
and finally bringing it out.

Dhaka M.A. Mannan, MP
November, 2014
