Retirement age
Is it possible to highlight in your paper the importance of extension of government service age limit from the present 57 to 60 or 62 years? You should agree that journalism is one of the best media for ensuring social justice, better economic growth, better atmosphere for democracy, fraternity, economic development, discipline, integrity and consistency. After liberation, you know better than me that the average life expectancy rose from 42 to 62. All Saarc countries adopted a higher service age limit except Bangladesh. In Bangladesh also the service age limit for certain jobs like judges, university professors, PSC members has been increased. But nothing has been done for the government service holders in general.
Now a non political caretaker govt. is in power. The government should look into the matter.
