In response, Minister Farhad Hussain outlined the government's recent progress in public service modernisation. Over the past 15 years, the government has made significant updates, including raising the entry age from 27 to 30 years and raising the retirement age from 57 to 59 years. He pointed out that the job environment and salary structure are increasingly attracting top talents from various universities.
Speaking about the age limit, Hussain called it an important policy issue. “Currently, job seekers start appearing for the BCS (Bangladesh Civil Service) examinations around the age of 22-23, giving them about 6 to 7 years to secure a place in the government service. We believe this provides adequate time for entry,'' he said.
