cadres after 7 yrs
Staff Correspondent
Thirty-two successful candidates of the 23rd Bangladesh Civil Service (BCS) examinations were formally appointed under different cadres of the public service after seven long years, a handout said yesterday.
Establishment Ministry yesterday issued a circular asking them to join their respective ministries on May 22.
The appointment letter will be considered invalid if anyone fails to join that day, the handout added.
The Public Service Commission (PSC) invited applications for the 23rd BCS examination only from the offspring of freedom fighters in 2001. But the then Awami League government could not complete all procedures before its tenure ended.
PSC sources said the BNP-Jamaat alliance government halted the procedures during its tenure even ignoring a High Court verdict due to apparent pressure from Jamaat-e-Islami.
The caretaker government initiated reforming the PSC for regaining public confidence in it. The reformed PSC headed by Dr Saadat Hussain finally announced the results on July 25, 2007 and sent some recommendations to the establishment ministry for appointing 70 successful candidates in different cadres.
