The interim government has brought back five retired additional secretaries and appointed them as secretaries on a contractual basis.
They have been appointed on contract for a period of two years from the date of joining, reads a notification issued by the Ministry of Public Administration today (17 August).
Sheikh Abdur Rashid has been made secretary of the Directorate of Secondary and Higher Education while Md Ehsanul Haque has been made secretary of the Road Transport and Highways Division.
Besides, Mohammad Abdul Momen has been appointed as secretary of the Public Security Division of Home Ministry, Nasimul Gani as secretary of the Public Division of President’s Office and MA Akmal Hossain Azad as secretary of the Railway Ministry.
All five appointees were recruited to the Bangladesh Civil Service in 1982. They retired before the 2018 elections.
The interim government that took over after the fall of the Awami League government recently canceled the contractual appointments of the secretaries of these ministries and transferred some to other ministries, according to the notification.
