The government yesterday appointed 162 officers under 43rd Bangladesh Civil Service (BCS) examina-tions in different cadres.
According to a public administration ministry gazette notification their appointment order will be count-ed with retrospective effect to ensure their seniority from the date when their original batch mates were appointed.
“Their ‘perceived seniority’ will be maintained from the date when their original batch joined the ser-vice,” read the notification issued in Bangla.
But, it said, this seniority would not entitle the 162 officers to any arrear financial benefit.
The newly appointed BCS officers will get their salaries in line with the National Pay Scale of 2015 which is Tk 22,000-53,060 for the entry level.
Out of the BCS 162 officials, 24 were selected for administration cadre, one for foreign service, 15 for agriculture, 65 for general education, seven for police service, five for fisheries, four for information, 10 for livestock, one for roads & highway, two for public health, one for railways, three for coopera-tives, one for audit & accounts, four for tax, three for custom & excise, three for food and rests for oth-er cadre services.
