Letter to the Chief Justice
S. M. Masum Billah
Sharif A M Reza Jaker, Stamford University Bangladesh
My Lord, I know that this practice of writing letter to the Chief Justice is not well in vogue in Bangladesh. But I get the courage from the fact that you are not only the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court but you are the Chief Justice of Bangladesh, to use the Constitutional phrase. Therefore please hear the cry of thousands of bona fide examinees of 27 BCS examination. My Lord, as it is true that the colours of Bangladesh national flag are green and red, similarly it is true that the preliminary question has been leaked out. The same kind of allegation was made in 24th BCS examination and that was proved. Same complaint was also made in 25th BCS, but was denied. This matter cannot be taken so lightly. You know that through this type of examination what type of civil servants are going to be recruited. This will further put the country into jeopardy. People can hardly expect honesty, integrity and dedication for the nation whose recruitment is void ab initio. Being a constitutional body, how Public Service Commission is recurrently being toppled in smooth and fair conducting of the examination needs to be scrutinized. Since the Supreme Court is the guardian of the constitution it has an obligation to see that the constitutional bodies are fairly functioning. It is our expectation that the Supreme Court will issue a suo moto rule to Chairman of the PSC to have an explanation of the matter. Because it seems that all other means of filing the complaint is exhausted. My Lord, the Supreme Court of Bangladesh in many other occasions have issued suo moto rule on the basis of newspaper report. We think that this is a fit case for exercising it. May we be pardoned for reminding you that in Indian Sunil Batra vs. Delhi Administration case simply a letter was treated as a writ petition?
