The current Secretary of the Public Service Commission (PSC), Abdullah Al Masud Chowdhury, has been in charge of the PSC for a long time. However, during his tenure, several allegations of irregularities and corruption related to the PSC have emerged.
Allegations of Irregularities:
- BCS Exam: There have been allegations of question leaks and other issues regarding the BCS exams conducted under the PSC. This has led to dissatisfaction among the candidates.
- Recruitment Process: The recruitment process by the PSC has been slow and delayed. Especially in the case of non-cadre appointments, accusations of favoritism have surfaced, leading to widespread dissatisfaction among job seekers and the public.
Allegations of Corruption:
- Bribery: Some PSC officials have been accused of accepting bribes for recruitment exams. There have been reports of corruption where money was collected for various job exams.
- PSC Employees: Several PSC employees have been involved in corruption, leading to investigations and arrests by the CID.
Due to these irregularities and corruption, public trust in the PSC has significantly decreased.
