In the recently published recruitment notification for the 43rd Bangladesh Civil Service (BCS), 227 final-recommended candidates have been excluded.
The Ministry of Public Administration's Recruitment Branch announced on Thursday (January 2) through a circular that adverse reports were received against these candidates from the National Security Intelligence (NSI) and the Directorate General of Forces Intelligence (DGFI).
The circular stated that the 227 candidates were temporarily deemed ineligible for recruitment, and further verification and scrutiny regarding their cases have been decided. Additionally, a total of 267 candidates, including 40 who were absent during the medical examination on December 30, have been excluded. The notification confirmed the appointment of 1,896 candidates.
However, the excluded 227 candidates will have the opportunity to apply for reconsideration. The ministry clarified that this application process will be open to all concerned candidates.
This explanation was provided by the Ministry of Public Administration in response to protests from the excluded candidates of the 43rd BCS.
