BNP yesterday hailed Public Administration Minister Syed Ashraful Islam for his promise to keep the administration neutral.
“After joining his new ministry, Awami League General Secretary Syed Ashraful Islam said he wants to keep the administration neutral and free from party influence. His spirit his absolutely good... we hail his attitude,” said BNP spokesman Asaduzzaman Ripon.
He made the remark while addressing a press briefing at the party’s Nayapaltan central office.
The BNP leader alleged that the government has absolutely imbalanced the administration over the last six years making brilliant and competent officials OSDs on political consideration.
Mentioning that they appreciate Ashraf for his comment as they believe in positive politics, Ripon said BNP wants to see the reflection of the minister’s words on his actions.
He suggested Ashraf to form a committee to evaluate through postings competent and honest officials who have long been kept OSDs.
“Our party expects the Public Administration minister to play a positive role so that no official, including secretaries and joint secretaries, falls victim to political vengeance,” the BNP spokesman said.
