Recently, a claim was made by a social media account named "Times Algebra" on X (formerly Twitter) that the Government of Bangladesh has barred Hindu candidates from government jobs. However, the Chief Advisor's (CA) Press Wing Facts has stated that this claim is completely false and fabricated.
On Thursday (January 2), this clarification was made through a post on the verified Facebook page of the Press Wing Facts.
The statement emphasized that the Government of Bangladesh does not discriminate against any citizen based on religion. It also noted that the quoted statement attributed to the Home Affairs Advisor in the post is baseless.
The post by "Times Algebra" alleged that the Government of Bangladesh has issued a new order prohibiting Hindus from joining government jobs. It further claimed that more than 1,500 applications from Hindu candidates were rejected for positions ranging from constables to high-ranking police officers.
