BNP questions intel’s role over BPSC question leak

Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) raised on Wednesday the question of role of the intelligence agencies over the leak of question papers of Bangladesh Public Service Commission (BPSC) recruitment examinations for government jobs.
The party also put a question whether the intelligence agencies were only engaged in arresting BNP leaders and activists.
Senior joint secretary general of BNP Ruhul Kabir Rizvi made the comments at a doa and milad mahfil organised by Jatiyatabadi Matsyajibj Dal seeking early recovery of ailing party chairperson Khaleda Zia at a madrasha in the capital's Rampura area.
"This dummy government in a planned way is trying to turn the whole nation into an issue loving nation. And for this reason they (government) are creating issues one after another to divert public attention," he said.
He asked Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina whether her government did not see the corruption committed by former army chief Aziz Ahmed and ex-IGP Benazir Ahmed and some other high-level government officials.
"What your (Prime Minister) agencies are doing? Don't they see these (corruption and leak of question papers of PSC? Were they established only for arresting and harassing BNP leaders and activists? How an office peon became owner of Tk600 million? How a driver became owner of Tk one billion, doesn't your government see these?," he questioned.
"What did the government intelligence agencies do when question papers of medical college admission tests and recruitment exams of Bangladesh Civil Service (BSC) were leaked? Do they (intelligence agencies) take sleep at daytime? If not, then how much of this corruption happened?" he continued.
Mr Rizvi said that allowing Indian trains to go from its one part to another part through using Bangladesh soil will jeopardise the country's sovereignty and independence.
He criticised the government for not raising voice against the killing of Bangladeshi people on the frontier by the Indian Border Security Force.
Mr Rizvi said that the neighbouring country India wanted to use Bangladesh land for its own interests.
He also said the government was creating issues one after another to divert public attention from the government's misdeeds and the anti-country MoUs signed with India.
Secretary General of Matsyajibi Dal Abdur Rahim conducted doa and milad mahfil also attended by assistant finance secretary of BNP Mahmudur Rahman Suman and vice-president of Swechchhasebak Dal Jahidul Kabir.
Meanwhile, the nationalist like-minded alliance demanded on Wednesday that the government cancel all the memoranda of understanding (MoUs) signed with India and immediately release Khaleda Zia for her treatment abroad.
The alliance also warned that they would intensify their ongoing movement if detained BNP chairperson Khaleda Zia was not released immediately.
