The BNP has unveiled a set of proposals aimed at reforming the country’s public administration



Dhaka, Dec 15 - The Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) has unveiled a set of proposals aimed at reforming the country’s public administration, suggesting comprehensive restructuring to enhance efficiency and impartiality within the system.

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 proposal to Dr Mokhlesur Rahman, Senior Secretary of the Ministry of Public Administration on Sunday.

“The entire administrative structure needs to be revamped. We propose that changes be made at all levels of the administration three months prior to every election. This includes revising the process for creating the Deputy Commissioner (DC) fit list,” Ismail Jabirullah said while talking to journalists.

He said, the importance of addressing issues caused by employees remaining in the same positions for prolonged periods, which has led to the formation of syndicates.

The proposals include provisions for mandatory transfers in such cases.

The BNP also highlighted the need to identify and take action against officials who may have exploited their positions under previous governments, ensuring a fair and neutral administration moving forward.-UNB
