Rajshahi: The authorities of Rajshahi University (RU) have come to learn of reports circulated recently through various media claiming that the university is going to recruit a large number of officers and staff on an ad hoc basis in violation of existing rules.
According to Bangladesh Sangbad Sangstha, RU in a press release today stated that the contents of these reports regarding ad hoc recruitment are completely false, baseless, and misleading. The RU authorities affirmed that during the Syndicate meeting held on Monday, there was no initiative or plan to recruit officers or staff and no such issue was included in the meeting agenda.
The university reassured that any recruitment at RU is conducted in strict accordance with existing rules and regulations. The reports suggesting large-scale recruitment were described as malicious and deliberate rumors aimed at creating instability and serving the interests of certain quarters.
RU highlighted that a stable and orderly environment has prevailed at the university for a long time, with classes and examinations being conducted as usual. The authorities emphasized that creating confusion based on fabricated issues is undesirable and urged anyone seeking information to verify it by contacting the relevant university authorities.
The RU authorities strongly condemned such baseless reports and called upon teachers, students, and all concerned to act responsibly and cooperate to ensure the smooth functioning of the university, the release added.
