A legal notice has been sent seeking the publication of the list of officials appointed to various government departments after passing the BCS exams with leaked questions.
The notice was sent to the chairman and secretary of the Bangladesh Public Service Commission (PSC), secretary of the Ministry of Public Administration, and secretary of the Ministry of Home Affairs.
Two Supreme Court lawyers, Barrister Mohammad Humayun Kabir Pallab and Barrister Mohammad Kawser, sent the notice on Sunday on behalf of the human rights organization Law and Life Foundation.
According to the legal notice, various reports published in newspapers and electronic media have shown that former drivers and other employees of the PSC have been supplying question papers of the BCS examination to the examinees in exchange for money for the last few decades.
Police have so far arrested 17 PSC employees in connection with the question paper leak.
In the police interrogation, Abed Ali and other dishonest employees described how they made mountains of wealth by distributing question papers among the examinees in exchange for money.
The notice said corruption and irregularities are increasing in the country due to the appointment of ineligible and inefficient people to important posts.
Therefore, the list of officials appointed to various government posts, who passed after the question paper was leaked, should be released.
