JS body asks for probe into FP dept recruitment
A parliamentary body yesterday asked the public administration ministry to investigate alleged irregularities in the recruitment of 144 employees in the family planning department.
The parliamentary standing committee on the ministry also asked the authorities concerned to extend the age limit of the employees, who are freedom fighters, to 61 from 59.
The committee's urge came following a news report published by a Bangla daily yesterday, which says some 144 employees had failed in the written tests but their names were included in the final list for viva-voce. Later, all the 144 employees were appointed.
