Constitution & Governance Overview

Welcome to the Constitution & Governance section of Bangladesh Hindu Samaj. Here we present how our organization is structured, how leadership is elected, how membership works, and how responsibilities flow across different committees. This section ensures full transparency, accountability, and clarity about how the Samaj operates.


1️⃣ Membership System

The membership framework of Bangladesh Hindu Samaj ensures that every individual can join in a structured, transparent, and community-driven way. Members play different roles based on their involvement, contribution, and readiness to serve.

2️⃣ Election Process

The Bangladesh Hindu Samaj follows a multi-layered, democratic, and weighted voting system. Leadership is elected every December in a cascading structure from local units to the central level.

3️⃣ Committee Structure

Bangladesh Hindu Samaj is governed through three powerful but balanced committees that ensure democratic decision-making, long-term continuity, and operational efficiency.

4️⃣ Committee Hierarchy

The Samaj runs through a tiered, top-down but locally empowered hierarchy. Each level reports to the one above it, ensuring smooth coordination.

5️⃣ Financial Structure & Revenue Sharing

Bangladesh Hindu Samaj operates on a transparent revenue-sharing model that ensures every administrative level has resources while maintaining upward accountability.

6️⃣ Annual Budget Framework

Newly elected Presidents take charge on January 1 every year and immediately begin structured financial planning.

7️⃣ Creating New Units

New units are established in growing or underserved areas to expand community service and organizational reach.

The Samaj works to protect, revive, and economically activate neglected Debottor (Hindu trust) properties.

🔟 Membership Fees & Structure

We follow a simple rule to avoid nepotism and conflict of interest: Those who receive benefits cannot participate in decision-making; and those who make decisions cannot receive any benefits.
