28th BCS
The circular of the 28th BCS has been issued at last after two and a half years of the 27th BCS circular, though it is supposed to be published every year. This type of gap is, however, not new in the process. In 2003, the circular of the 24th BCS was published after two and a half years of the 22nd BCS circular of 2000, if we do not take into count the 23rd special BCS of 2003. So, more or less a period of five years had elapsed without issuance of any circular. In contrast, the BCS exams held in the period i.e. from 2000 to 2007 covering the 22nd to the 27th BCS were the most controversial and allegedly corrupt. If we consider these two factors, it can be said that a number of meritorious students have failed to qualify in the BCS exams in the said period. It also means that the students who completed their graduation and post graduation in this period have failed to get the cherished jobs not for lack of their merit, rather due to the state of affairs. Though the circular of the 24th BCS exams was published by relaxing the age limit to provide scope to a greater number of aspirants, the scenario is quite different in the case of the 28th BCS.
Though non-publishing of the circular is not the fault of the candidates, yet they are the victims and about this they have nothing to do. Isn't it the responsibility of the authorities concerned to ensure justice? Why innocent candidates who have no control over bureaucratic decisions will suffer?
