NCP leader Sarjis Alam has urged applicants for the post of police constable in Panchagarh not to chase political leaders or coordinators for influence. “The recruitment process includes a fitness test, followed by a 50-mark written exam and a 15-mark viva,” he said. Emphasizing the importance of preparation, he added, “Once you pass the fitness test, focus on the written and viva exams instead of seeking political backing. Panchagarh District Police has confirmed that no recommendations will be accepted.” He further stated, “This is a betrayal of the merit-based revolution that began with the slogan ‘Quota No, Merit Yes’—where political favoritism stands against the blood of martyrs.”
