HT Imam’s job assurance exposed govt’s extreme politicisation: BNP
UNB, Dhaka :
BNP acting secretary general Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir on Thursday claimed that PM’s adviser HT Imam’s assurance about arranging government jobs for Chhatra League activists has exposed the government’s extreme politicisation and nepotism.
“The government has already politicised the judiciary and administration. PM’s adviser HT Imam at a programme yesterday (Wednesday) told the BCL men not to be worried about their jobs if they can only pass the written tests in civil service exams,” he said.
The BNP leader further said, “This remark of an influential government man demonstrates the sorry condition of the administration. We think it has uncovered the government’s tremendous politicisation and partiality.”
He made the comments while addressing a discussion at the Institution of Engineers, Bangladesh arranged by Jatiyatabadi Swechchhasebak Dal, marking the ‘National Revolution and Solidarity Day’.
Earlier on Wednesday, HT Imam, addressing a programme of BCL at Dhaka University reportedly said, “We’ll see how much we can help you with the viva voce. Our leader (Sheikh Hasina) has told us to arrange jobs for you by any means.”
Criticising the remarks, Fakhrul said there is no scope for arranging government jobs for the activists of a particular party according to the constitution.
“As per the constitution, there have no discrepancy over providing government jobs, but now no one, except Chhatra League, gets the public services. Before providing BCS or government jobs, it’s now examined through the intelligences whether the candidate is pro-Awami League and Chhatra League or not. It’s complete violation of the constitution,” he alleged.
