Government is aiming to recruit over 3000 police constables in all 64 districts by December this year through maintaining cent percent transparency.
“Initially, we’ve decided to employ 3000 plus trainee recruit constables (TRCs) in 64 districts on the basis of vacancy up to June, 2024, but the number ultimately may increase in line with vacant posts,” a senior official of the Police Headquarters (PH) told on condition of anonymity, reports BSS.
The police headquarters has taken all the necessary preparations to recruit the TRCs and an advertisement containing all related information has already been published in various national dailies, the official said, adding that the main recruitment process will begin on October 25 and it will conclude on December 4.
The PH has planned to recruit the TRCs through a corruption free process and maintaining full transparency, Enamul Haque Sagor, Assistant Inspector General (AIG) of Media and Public Relations told BSS.
“The Police Headquarters has already warned the aspirant candidates of not being involved in any sorts of financial transaction with anyone during the recruitment process,” said Sagor.
The intending TRCs would have to pass through at least seven steps in the recruitment process under the close monitoring and supervision by the Police Headquarters.
These steps are – preliminary screening, physical measurement and verification of documents, physical fitness test, written test, intelligence question test and viva, medical test, police verification and joining the police training centre (PTC).
The intelligence officials, including the Special Branch (SB) of police, have already started their field work to ensure the fair recruitment of the TRCs, Sagor said, adding that they would definitely track down the vested quarter if any evil attempt is noticed during the recruitment process.
“We’ll be on high alert along with our digitized mechanism across the country to ensure fair recruitment,” AIG Sagor said, adding that police’s cyber patrolling on different social media platforms will also be beefed up.
“The Inspector General of Police (IGP) has already instructed the concerned units to take necessary measures to ensure a free, fair recruitment process so that none can raise any question about it,” the AIG added.
He also requested all to dial 999 if any unfair-means or irregularity is detected during the recruitment process.
Home Affairs Adviser Lt Gen (retd) Jahangir Alam Chowdhury while talking to journalists at his secretariat office today said they are planning to recruit new policemen and an advertisement has already been published in this regard.
“Advertisement for recruiting sub-inspectors would also be published in a day or two. We’re also planning to recruit BGB (Border Guard Bangladesh) and Ansar personnel,” he added.
