Interim government Adviser Asif Mahmud Sajeeb Bhuiyan warned the government officials in Chattogram that he is prepared to dismantle the existing system and appoint new people, reports The Business Standard.
"We will break the system if necessary. We will bring in new appointments and place new people in these positions," he said during a meeting with officials from various departments of the Chattogram division on Saturday.
During the meeting, Asif questioned their role in controlling the rise in commodity prices.
The adviser to the Ministry of Labour and Employment and the Ministry of Youth and Sports expressed frustration over the lack of goodwill in the task force responsible for monitoring markets and the consumer rights directorate.
He also said there are non-cooperation with the government.
“I have no information on how many operations you conducted under the task force or consumer rights directorate or how much work you have done. The commerce secretary sent me a report on a three-day task force, and Chattogram was mentioned only for one day in it, with no mention of you on the other two days,” Asif told the government officials.
