Education Adviser Wahiduddin Mahmud has stated that no employee in any educational institution can be coerced into resigning. He made this assertion during a meeting with officials from the Ministry of Education at the Secretariat on Sunday.
Addressing concerns about unfair practices in certain institutions, Mahmud emphasized that the government is committed to taking strong action against any unjust treatment or coercion faced by employees serving in educational roles.
He also mentioned that a new recruitment and posting process is being implemented to ensure fairness and transparency across the educational sector.
Mahmud reassured the public that any legitimate complaints regarding forced resignations or related issues would be thoroughly investigated and addressed appropriately.
He warned that coercing employees to resign could lead to administrative instability, potentially causing difficulties in the payment of salaries and allowances to teachers, officials, and staff.
Mahmud emphasized that the appointment and transfer of teachers, officials, and employees in government educational institutions are conducted in accordance with established rules and regulations, with no provision for forcing anyone to resign.
Reflecting on the need for order, Mahmud expressed his desire to return to a disciplined society following a successful "mass uprising."
He stressed the importance of restoring the expected teacher-student relationship within educational institutions and insisted that no one should be subjected to personal insults.
Mahmud also highlighted the significance of maintaining decorum and respect within educational settings.
