Md. Ashikur Rahman Ashik, Reporter || National Citizen Party (NCP) leader Nasiruddin Patwary has voiced strong concerns over alleged question leaks in recruitment examinations, political favouritism and what he described as widespread attempts to take control of various sectors.In a Facebook post on Saturday, Patwary questioned why members of the Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) would need leaked examination questions to secure jobs.Do BNP people not study? Why do questions have to be leaked for them to sit for examinations? he wrote.Patwary alleged that roads, bus terminals, tempo stands and marketplaces were being taken over, while extortion, violence and land grabbing were threatening the livelihoods of businesspeople. He warned that the recruitment sector was now also being pushed towards destruction.Stressing the need for transparency in public administration, the NCP leader called for a recruitment system free from corruption and political influence.“If you want to run the country, at least keep the job market transparent and free from corruption. How can the country function if political identity replaces merit, lobbying replaces qualifications, and question leaks replace examinations?” he wrote.Warning of the potential consequences of such practices, Patwary said a party could eventually bring about its own downfall through short-sighted actions, comparing the situation to “eating its own tail”.At the end of his post, he called for all examinations to be free from question leaks and for an end to the misuse of quotas and political favouritism in recruitment.He also urged political actors to abandon extortion and land grabbing and work towards building a Bangladesh based on merit, qualifications and justice.The allegations were made by Patwary in his Facebook post. The post itself does not establish whether the alleged question leaks or other activities have been independently verified.
