A major bribery scandal at the Rangpur Secondary and Higher Education (MAUSHI) office has sparked controversy as Deputy Director Roksana Begum is accused of trying to suppress the incident. Two months after the alleged bribery case, no action has been taken by higher authorities, leaving victims and staff frustrated. Reports claim that Roksana, known for her political connections, has been intimidating teachers and employees visiting her office, while her close aide, computer operator Ashraf Ali, has allegedly amassed significant wealth.

According to multiple officials, Roksana has long relied on Ashraf for office dealings, often excluding other staff. The scandal came to light when teacher Maidul Islam Khan was arrested on February 16 with Tk 700,000 in alleged bribe money meant for teacher enlistment. After his release, he publicly accused Roksana and her associates of demanding large sums for MPO approvals. Despite media coverage, no investigation or disciplinary action has followed.

Both Roksana and Ashraf have denied all allegations, while the regional director stated that no formal complaint has been received so far.
