Bangladesh’s Education Adviser Professor Dr. C.R. Abrar has warned secondary school teachers who halted student examinations as part of their protest, saying such actions violate government service regulations. In an interview with the Bangladesh Sangbad Sangstha (BSS), he stated that teachers refusing to conduct exams could face disciplinary measures. Abrar criticized the teachers’ demand for promotion from the 10th to the 9th grade, calling it unfair and outside their employment terms. He emphasized that the 9th grade is reserved for BCS administration cadre officers and that the issue involves inter-ministerial coordination. The adviser condemned the use of students’ exams as leverage in the protest, describing it as unethical and harmful to learners and parents. He reiterated the government’s firm stance that examinations must proceed without interruption and urged teachers to resume tests immediately to reduce pressure on students and families.
