DHAKA, Dec 15, 2024 (BSS) – Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) in a series of recommendations to the Public Administration Reform Commission has sought action against party-biased and corrupt officials working in the administration in the last 16 years. 

A delegation, led by Ismail Jabirullah, a member of the BNP Chairperson’s Advisory Council and a member of the party's Public Administration Reform Committee submitted the short, medium and long-term recommendations to Senior Secretary to the Ministry of Public Administration (MOPA) and Member Secretary of the Public Administration Reform Committee Md Mokhlesur Rahman at the secretariat here today.

BNP Chairperson’s Advisory Council member Ismail Jabirullah disclosed the information to the journalists after submitting the recommendations. 

In the recommendations, BNP also called for immediate identification of partisan and corrupt officials who have been working in the administration during the last 16 years of the autocratic Awami League regime.

After identifying, the officials who have crossed their 25-year job period, should be dismissed or appointed as Officer on Special Duty (OSD) or sent to less important positions. 

The BNP committee also suggested giving promotion of honest and meritorious officials who were made OSD and sent to compulsory retirement in the last 15 years on the basis of merit.
