চুরি হওয়া অর্থ পুনরুদ্ধারের জন্য ৫ কোটি ডলার পর্যন্ত বিনিয়োগ করতে আগ্রহী তিনটি আন্তর্জাতিক প্রতিষ্ঠান: প্রেস অফিস

বাংলাদেশ ব্যাংকের গভর্নরের লন্ডন সফর: অর্থ পাচার রোধে আন্তর্জাতিক সহযোগিতা

লন্ডন সফরে বাংলাদেশ ব্যাংকের গভর্নর আহসান এইচ মনসুর ঘোষণা করেছেন যে, অর্থ পাচার রোধ এবং চুরি হওয়া সম্পদ ফেরানোর লক্ষ্যে তিনটি বিশ্ববিখ্যাত প্রতিষ্ঠান ৫ কোটি ডলার পর্যন্ত বিনিয়োগের আগ্রহ প্রকাশ করেছে। এই প্রতিষ্ঠানগুলো মামলার কার্যক্রম পরিচালনায় অর্থায়ন এবং তদন্ত কার্যক্রমে সহায়তা করবে।


প্রধান উপদেষ্টার প্রেস অফিস সূত্রে জানা গেছে, বাংলাদেশ ব্যাংকের গভর্নর ১৭-২১ মার্চ লন্ডনে সরকারি এবং বেসরকারি খাতের প্রতিনিধিদের সঙ্গে বৈঠক করেছেন। তিনি জানান, যদি যথাযথ প্রমাণ উপস্থাপন করা যায়, তাহলে এসব প্রতিষ্ঠান সম্পদ উদ্ধার প্রক্রিয়ায় সক্রিয় ভূমিকা নেওয়ার জন্য প্রস্তুত রয়েছে।

এই সফরের অংশ হিসেবে গভর্নর বিল অ্যান্ড মেলিন্ডা গেটস ফাউন্ডেশন দ্বারা আয়োজিত বিভিন্ন কর্মশালায় অংশগ্রহণ করেন এবং দুর্নীতিবিরোধী সংগঠন, ব্রিটিশ এমপি ও প্রবাসী বাংলাদেশিদের সঙ্গে মতবিনিময় করেন। তিনি উল্লেখ করেন, "চুরি হওয়া সম্পদ উদ্ধার করা শুধুমাত্র একটি অর্থনৈতিক বিষয় নয়, এটি একটি নৈতিক ও রাজনৈতিক দায়িত্বও।"

লন্ডনে অনুষ্ঠিত এক সেমিনারে প্রায় ৩০টি আন্তর্জাতিক প্রতিষ্ঠান অংশ নেয়। সেখানে গভর্নর আহসান মনসুর জানান, পাচার হওয়া সম্পদ ফেরাতে বিশ্বব্যাংক এবং আইসিএআরের সহযোগিতায় একটি ‘টার্মস অব রেফারেন্স’ তৈরি করা হচ্ছে, যাতে বেসরকারি আইন সংস্থাগুলো কার্যকরভাবে যুক্ত হতে পারে।

একই সময় গভর্নর আল জাজিরা, ফাইন্যান্সিয়াল টাইমস, গার্ডিয়ান, এবং ডেইলি মেইলকে সাক্ষাৎকার দেন এবং আন্তর্জাতিক সহায়তা পাওয়ার কৌশল নিয়ে যুক্তরাজ্যের দুটি কৌশলগত যোগাযোগ প্রতিষ্ঠানের সঙ্গে আলোচনা করেন।

এদিকে, দুদক ইতোমধ্যে প্রধানমন্ত্রী শেখ হাসিনা এবং তাঁর পরিবারের সদস্যসহ ১০টি শীর্ষ শিল্পগোষ্ঠীর বিরুদ্ধে অর্থ পাচারের অভিযোগে তদন্ত শুরু করেছে। এই উদ্যোগে দুদকের নেতৃত্বে সিআইডি, এনবিআর ও বিএফআইইউ যৌথভাবে কাজ করছে।

বাংলাদেশের অর্থনীতি এবং দুর্নীতির বিরুদ্ধে এই উদ্যোগগুলো একটি গুরুত্বপুর্ণ পদক্ষেপ হিসেবে বিবেচিত হচ্ছে, যা দেশের স্বার্থে আন্তর্জাতিক সহযোগিতার মাধ্যমে সম্পদ ফিরে পাওয়ার পথে একটি নতুন দিগন্ত উন্মোচন করবে।

Capital Cities Signs for Catalogue and Future Releases

Capital Cities, known for their hit single "Safe and Sound," has partnered with DA&LS to manage their entire catalogue and future projects. Their first release with Downtown, "A Hurricane of Frowns," debuted on February 14 and has already led to a more than 30% increase in daily Spotify streams.

“Downtown has made an immediate impact in amplifying our reach,” said Ryan Merchant and Sebu Simonian of Capital Cities. “We’re energized by this partnership and excited for what’s next.”

Sofi Tukker Brings U.S. Catalogue to Downtown

Sofi Tukker is also joining DA&LS, bringing their U.S. catalogue, which includes popular tracks like "Purple Hat." The duo first gained fame in 2015 with their single "Drinkee," earning a Grammy nomination for Best Dance Recording. Their debut album, Treehouse, released in 2019, also received a Grammy nomination.

This signing reflects Downtown's strategy of aligning with globally recognized artists.

Twenty One Pilots’ Early Catalogue Upstreamed

Declan Rice Dazzles Real Madrid with Stunning Free-Kicks: Genius or Chaos?

Declan Rice Dazzles Real Madrid with Stunning Free-Kicks: Genius or Chaos?

Declan Rice put on an incredible show at the Emirates on Tuesday night, scoring two amazing free-kicks to help Arsenal defeat Real Madrid 3-0 in their Champions League quarter-final first leg.

In a game where he had never scored a direct free-kick before, Rice made history by doing it twice in just 12 minutes.

His first goal was a beautiful curl around the wall that left goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois frozen. The second goal was a powerful strike that rocketed into the top corner, giving Courtois no chance to save it.


Declan Rice Dazzles Real Madrid with Stunning Free-Kicks: Genius or Chaos?

How Unlikely Were These Goals?

These goals weren’t just stunning; they were highly unlikely. According to Opta, the chance of scoring the first goal was only 3.7%, and the second was 6.3%. Together, that means there was less than a 1 in 400 chance of scoring both.

Former England keeper Rob Green stated, “Those shots were impossible to save. That second one had perfect technique and power.”

Which Goal Was Better?

Green quickly picked the second goal as the best. “It went in on Courtois’ side, but he still couldn’t stop it. It was hit so cleanly.”

Data showed that the second shot had a 97% chance of hitting the target but only a 3% chance of being saved. With Courtois’ height and positioning, he was still helpless.

Was Madrid’s Wall to Blame?

For the first goal, Madrid set up a four-man wall, but Rice easily got around it. Green said, “You’d need players outside the post to stop that, and no one does that.”

For his second goal, Arsenal blocked Courtois’ view by putting players in front of the wall. However, Green didn’t think that mattered: “Even with a clear view, he wouldn’t have stopped it. It was perfect.”

Is Rice Now Arsenal’s Free-Kick Specialist?

Usually, Arsenal’s free-kicks are taken by Bukayo Saka or Martin Odegaard. Saka hasn’t scored one since October 2024, and Odegaard hasn't scored since 2021.

“If those kicks were closer, they might not have been Rice’s,” Green explained. “But from that far out? No one at Arsenal strikes the ball like him.”

The Decline of Free-Kick Goals

Goals from direct free-kicks, once common for stars like David Beckham and Lionel Messi, are becoming less frequent:

  • In 2003–04, the Premier League had 621 direct free-kick attempts.
  • By 2022–23, that number had dropped to just 283.
  • There were 41 direct free-kick goals in 2007–08, but only 11 last season.

Green suggests that defensive changes, like placing a player behind the wall, make it easier for goalkeepers. “But when someone hits it like Rice? There’s no defense for that.”

Quick Stats

  • 🏆 Rice is only the fourth Arsenal player to score a direct free-kick in the Champions League.
  • 🎯 He’s in elite company with players like Rivaldo and Ronaldo as one of only five to score two in a UCL match.
  • 📈 These were his first direct free-kick goals in 339 career appearances.

It took Declan Rice over 300 games to score his first free-kick, but he made it count. On Tuesday night, he didn’t just score; he proved he could be a valuable free-kick weapon for Arsenal moving forward.

Arshad Chaiwala Moves Court Over Blocked ID and Passport

Arshad Chaiwala Moves Court Over Blocked ID and Passport

Pakistani social media sensation Arshad Khan, popularly known as Chaiwala, has approached the Lahore High Court's Rawalpindi Bench after the National Database and Registration Authority (NADRA) and passport office blocked his identity card and passport. Authorities reportedly took action due to his failure to provide proof of citizenship.

Arshad Chaiwala Moves Court Over Blocked ID and Passport


Arshad rose to fame as a teenager when a photograph of him selling tea at an Islamabad market went viral. His striking looks—particularly his piercing blue eyes—captivated millions, earning him modeling offers, media attention, and international recognition.

In his petition, filed through Advocate Umar Ijaz Gilani, Arshad claims he's being asked to provide proof of residence before 1978—a requirement he says is both unreasonable and unjust. The court has summoned the relevant authorities to present records on April 17.

During the hearing, Advocate Gilani argued that Arshad symbolizes the "Pakistani dream," having risen from modest beginnings to global fame through a single candid photograph.


In 2020, Arshad opened his own café in Islamabad, aptly named Café Chai Wala. Decorated with traditional truck art, the café celebrates Pakistani culture. Despite advice to drop the Chaiwala label, Arshad embraced it. “Many suggested I drop Chaiwala from the name, but it’s what gave me my identity—and that’s something I’ll always treasure,” he said in an interview.

Arshad also expressed his desire to launch an initiative focused on youth education and skill development, aiming to empower young people with tools to earn a sustainable livelihood.

The court received information about prior rulings from the Sindh High Court, Islamabad High Court, and Lahore High Court, which deemed the blocking of identity documents without proper due process as illegal.

In response, the Assistant Attorney General and NADRA’s legal representative challenged the petition's maintainability, arguing that the petitioner had not provided sufficient proof of Pakistani citizenship.

However, Justice Jawad Hassan issued notices to the relevant authorities for April 17, instructing senior officials from NADRA and the Directorate of Immigration and Passports to appear with the necessary records to explain their actions.

The court also prohibited authorities from taking any adverse or coercive actions against Arshad Khan until a final decision is reached. The petitioner, born in Pakistan to Afghan refugee parents, submitted a birth certificate issued by the Government of Pakistan. He is seeking formal recognition of his citizenship under Section 4 of the Pakistan Citizenship Act, 1951, and requests the issuance of his identity documents accordingly.

The judge ruled that the petition is maintainable and directed NADRA to resolve the issue within one month via a legally valid interim order. Notably, the court also restrained all government departments from taking any punitive measures against the petitioner until NADRA makes a final determination.
    

Amazon Set to Launch Its First Operational Internet Satellites from Cape Canaveral

Amazon Poised to Launch First Operational Internet Satellites from Cape Canaveral

Amazon plans to launch 27 satellites into orbit as the first step in a larger project to deploy over 3,200 satellites for its Project Kuiper. This initiative aims to provide fast and reliable internet access around the world, especially in areas that currently lack good service.

In October 2023, Amazon launched two prototype satellites, marking an important milestone in testing its satellite technology. The upcoming satellites will have improved features, like better propulsion systems and advanced solar panels.

To complete the constellation, Amazon has over 80 additional launches planned. Project Kuiper will compete with established services like SpaceX’s Starlink, which has more than 7,000 active satellites.

The rapid growth of these large satellite networks has raised concerns about space debris and interference with astronomical observations. To address these issues, Amazon and SpaceX are using special coatings on their satellites to minimize their visibility from Earth.

Amazon Set to Launch Its First Operational Internet Satellites


As the competition in satellite internet increases, regulators like the FCC are looking at ways to simplify licensing and ensure safe growth in low-Earth orbit. Cape Canaveral continues to be a key location for private space companies, with firms like Blue Origin also preparing for future satellite launches.


Five (5) Simple Daily Habits to Lower Cortisol—No Meditation Necessary

Stress is a normal part of life—and in moderation, it can actually be helpful. But when it becomes constant, it takes a toll—both mentally and physically. At the center of it all is cortisol, the hormone your body releases when it senses stress.


“Cortisol is designed to spike in short bursts during moments of pressure or perceived danger,” explains psychologist Pilar Guerra Escudero. “The trouble starts when those levels remain high over time. That’s when it begins to negatively affect our immune system, sleep quality, and mood.”

To put things in perspective, Dr. Vicente Mera, author of Young At Any Age, explains that chronically elevated cortisol can suppress your immune system as strongly as medications used in transplant or autoimmune treatments. It can even unearth hidden infections or underlying illnesses.

At the same time, low levels of mood-boosting hormones—like serotonin and endorphins—can leave you feeling drained, anxious, or emotionally flat. The key? Lowering cortisol while naturally encouraging the production of these feel-good chemicals.

No Meditation? No Problem.

While meditation is a well-known stress reliever, it’s not the only path to peace of mind. In fact, for some people, it can be more stressful than soothing.

“Activities like swimming can be even more effective than meditation for some individuals—especially if meditation feels frustrating or hard to sustain,” says Guerra Escudero. Movement provides a natural mental break without the pressure to ‘clear your mind.’

Here are five easy ways to lower cortisol and lift your mood—no meditation cushion required.

1. Laugh It Off

Laughter is a natural stress-buster. “Humor is one of the most powerful tools we have against stress,” says Dr. Mera. A good laugh not only reduces cortisol, but also triggers the release of endorphins and serotonin, helping you feel lighter—mentally and physically. Watch a funny movie, scroll through some memes, or catch up with a friend who always makes you laugh.

2. Step into Nature

A short walk outside can do wonders. “Spending just 20 minutes in nature can lower cortisol levels by up to 16%,” shares endocrinologist Ángela Llaneza. This practice, often called forest bathing, doesn’t require an actual forest—your local park or a tree-lined street can have similar effects. The key is to unplug and be present.

3. Indulge in Dark Chocolate

Here’s a sweet way to boost your mood: dark chocolate. “It stimulates the release of endorphins, our natural ‘happiness’ hormones,” says nutritionist Yaraseth del Castillo. Look for bars with at least 85% cocoa and enjoy a small piece daily to tap into its stress-reducing powers.

4. Stretch Your Stress Away

Gentle movement like stretching can calm the body and mind. “Even a simple stretch or standing tall with confidence can signal your brain to relax,” says Dr. Beatriz Crespo, an expert in sports medicine. Try a few light stretches during the day, especially when you're feeling tense or stuck at a desk.

5. Swim It Out

Swimming is more than great cardio—it’s a powerful stress reliever. “According to Mayo Clinic research, swimming can cut cortisol levels by 30% and improve sleep,” Llaneza notes. Plus, it’s low-impact, making it a sustainable and relaxing option for nearly everyone.

The takeaway: You don’t need a meditation practice to manage stress and feel better. Whether it’s a swim, a stretch, a walk in nature, a laugh with friends, or a bit of dark chocolate, small daily habits can go a long way in lowering cortisol and lifting your spirits.

Ashik Chowdhury : From Skydiving Heights to the Helm of BIDA

Ashik Chowdhury: From Skydiving Heights to the Helm of BIDA


Among Bangladesh’s rising stars in leadership, Ashik Chowdhury stands out as a trailblazer — a rare fusion of daring adventurer and strategic thinker. An international banker, record-breaking skydiver, and now the Executive Chairman of the Bangladesh Investment Development Authority (BIDA), Ashik’s journey is nothing short of extraordinary. His life story sends a powerful message to the youth: dreams are meant to rise above limits.

Leadership with Altitude: The Rise of Ashik Chowdhury

Ashik’s name has become synonymous with bold, transformative leadership. Born in Chandpur and raised in Jashore, he began his education at Sylhet Cadet College, going on to earn his undergraduate degree from the prestigious Institute of Business Administration (IBA), University of Dhaka. He later pursued postgraduate studies in finance at the London Business School, and is also a Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA).

Professionally, Ashik built a diverse career spanning global organizations — from British American Tobacco to Standard Chartered Bank, American Airlines, and HSBC. As of late 2024, he was an Associate Director at HSBC Singapore, focusing on Infrastructure Finance Investment Banking.

His global exposure and visionary mindset led the Bangladeshi government to appoint him Executive Chairman of BIDA in September 2024, succeeding Lokman Hossain Miah.

Skydiving into the History Books

While his corporate career commands attention, Ashik’s passion for skydiving is what captured global headlines. A trained and licensed skydiver, he underwent rigorous training in Thailand before attempting something spectacular.

On May 25, 2024, Ashik performed a record-breaking skydive from 41,795 feet over Memphis, USA, proudly bearing the Bangladeshi flag. The feat earned him a Guinness World Record for the "Greatest Distance Free Fall with a Banner or Flag."

Sponsored by United Commercial Bank (UCB) and supported by Prothom Alo, this high-altitude leap wasn’t just about adrenaline — it was about national pride and inspiring a generation.

A New Era for Investment and Innovation

As the head of BIDA, Ashik is now driving efforts to create a transparent, tech-driven, and investor-friendly environment in Bangladesh. His appointment symbolizes a shift toward innovation, professionalism, and global standards in public service.

He also holds the post of Executive Chairman of the Bangladesh Economic Zones Authority (BEZA), reinforcing his influence in shaping Bangladesh’s economic landscape.

In recognition of his service, Ashik was granted the rank of State Minister on April 7, 2025 — a testament to his growing impact on national development.

Grounded in Family and Values

Despite his high-flying achievements, Ashik remains deeply grounded in family life. He is married to Nabila, a fellow IBA graduate, and together they are raising a son and a daughter. His family is his foundation, offering him balance and purpose beyond the boardroom.

Beyond Business: A Holistic Leader

Ashik’s influence extends to education and social enterprise. He has taught as a visiting professor at the Bangladesh University of Professionals and served as an advisor to the Grameen Telecom Trust. His ability to bridge corporate expertise with academic and social insight has made him a well-rounded, human-centered leader.

Quick Facts: Who is Ashik Chowdhury?

  • Nationality: Bangladeshi

  • Current Roles: Executive Chairman of BIDA & BEZA

  • Education: Sylhet Cadet College; IBA, University of Dhaka; London Business School

  • Professional Background: HSBC, American Airlines, Standard Chartered, BAT

  • Notable Achievement: Guinness World Record skydiver (41,795 ft, May 2024)

  • Family: Married to Nabila; father of two

  • Government Rank: State Minister (since April 2025)

Ashik Chowdhury’s journey—from leaping out of planes to leading Bangladesh’s investment frontier—proves that with courage, vision, and commitment, even the sky is not the limit.

Nitish Rana Displays Explosive Form in RR Nets; Coach Rahul Dravid Watches Closely | WATCH VIDEO

Nitish Rana Displays Explosive Form in RR Nets; Coach Rahul Dravid Watches Closely | WATCH VIDEO

The Rajasthan Royals are preparing for a crucial IPL 2025 showdown against the Gujarat Titans at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. Amidst the intense preparations, all eyes in the nets are on Nitish Rana, who is grabbing attention with his impressive form.

Nitish Rana's Relentless Focus and Fearless Approach Define IPL 2025

Nitish Rana seems to be a man on a mission this season. The dynamic Indian batter has shown grit and class in his performances for Rajasthan Royals, stepping up when the team has needed him most. With his hunger for runs and a renewed sense of purpose, Rana continues to sharpen his skills during intense net sessions, delivering powerful shots that could spell trouble for opponents.

All Eyes on Rana as Dravid Observes

After parting ways with Kolkata Knight Riders, Rana joined Rajasthan Royals and has quickly become a vital cog in the middle order. His impactful batting display against Chennai Super Kings was a testament to his form and confidence. As RR prepares to face the Gujarat Titans, Rana is leaving no stone unturned in training.
Nitish Rana



In a video recently posted on the Royals’ official ‘X’ handle (formerly Twitter), Rana can be seen locked in during a net session—executing switch hits, lofted drives, and monstrous sixes with ease. What made the video even more noteworthy was the presence of Team India coach Rahul Dravid, watching intently from behind the nets, clearly intrigued by the left-hander’s explosive form.

A Star on the Rise

Rana was sensational against CSK, taking charge at No. 3 and smashing a quickfire 81 off just 36 deliveries, laced with 10 boundaries and 5 towering sixes. With a strike rate of 225, he had CSK on the back foot before MS Dhoni’s lightning-quick stumping brought an end to his stellar innings. Despite missing out on a century, his effort played a crucial role in RR’s narrow 6-run victory.



Now, with the Royals set to battle the Titans on April 9 at Ahmedabad’s iconic stadium, all eyes will be on Nitish Rana. If his form continues, he could very well emerge as one of the standout performers of IPL 2025—and maybe even knock on the doors of the national selectors once again.

When did I say that? - Indian Cricketer Gets Annoyed at Journalist Before IPL 2025 Match

Indian Cricketer Gets Annoyed at Journalist Before IPL 2025 Match

Before the IPL 2025 match between Gujarat Titans (GT) and Rajasthan Royals (RR), an Indian all-rounder got upset during a press conference when a journalist brought up something he supposedly said earlier. The cricketer quickly responded, "When did I say that?" showing that he didn’t remember making the comment.

IPL 2025


The journalist had mentioned a statement about team strategy or a player's performance, but the cricketer denied ever saying it. The interaction was a bit tense, and some people thought the cricketer was overreacting, while others felt he might have been frustrated with incorrect reporting.

After the sharp exchange, the cricketer calmed down and continued with the press conference. This small incident grabbed attention, especially since the IPL is full of high-pressure moments, and fans and media often make a big deal out of these things.
