Expedite recruitment to 16 posts asked

A parliamentary committee on Wednesday recommended taking necessary steps to request the chairman of the Bangladesh Public Service Commission (BPSC) to complete the recruitment process for 16 posts in the Bangladesh Parliament Secretariat as soon as possible.

The posts include 15 first-class and one second-class position that can be filled through direct recruitment.

The recommendation was made at the first meeting of the committee formed to deal with staffing-related issues of the Bangladesh Parliament Secretariat, held at the Sangsad Bhaban with Deputy Speaker Barrister Kayser Kamal, MP, in the chair.

The meeting held detailed discussions on filling vacant posts in the Parliament Secretariat, evaluating the performance of officers and employees, taking effective measures to improve their efficiency and other important issues.

The committee decided to publish recruitment advertisements in daily newspapers by the first week of November 2026 to complete the direct recruitment process for vacant third- and fourth-class posts.

The meeting also discussed the recruitment of 86 people in light of a court verdict. The committee recommended keeping the relevant posts reserved and completing the recruitment process in accordance with the court’s ruling.

Besides, the committee formed on September 16, 2025, during the interim government to deal with these issues was declared dissolved with effect from October 14, 2026.
