From now a job seekers will be able to sit for Bangladesh Civil Service (BCS) examinations up to a maximum of four times.
This decision was taken at a meeting of the advisory council chaired by chief adviser Dr Mohammad Yunus at his office on Thursday, said a press release from Cabinet Division.
It said that candidates will now be allowed to take the BCS exams a maximum of four times.
This change follows discussions over a previous decision taken last week limiting candidates to three attempts.
The release states that under the powers granted by Section 59 of the ‘Government Service Act, 2018’ and based on the Ordinance on Maximum Age Limit for Direct Recruitment in 2024, the Ministry of Public Administration has restructured the ‘Bangladesh Civil Service (Age, Qualifications, and Examination for Direct Recruitment) Regulations, 2014,’ permitting a candidate up to four attempts in the BCS exam.
The advisory council has instructed the Ministry of Public Administration to include this amendment in the regulations.
