DU proctor files GD for his security
Dhaka University (DU) acting Proctor Prof Dr Muhammad Amzad Ali has lodged a general diary (GD) with Shahbagh Police Station seeking personal security.
In the GD filed on Friday, he mentioned that Food Secretary Barun Dev Mitra and several people introducing themselves as DGFI and NSI personnel threatened him over phone saying that he did not know how to behave with a secretary.
On the same day, the proctor caught two former DU students with sets of leaked question papers hours before a written test for recruitment of sub-assistant food inspector and lower division assistant-cum-computer in the ministry.
To inform this he called the food secretary, who got angry at Amzad because he started his telephonic conversation asking “whether he is talking with food secretary Mr Barun Dev Mitra?”
Claiming that no incident of misbehaving took place during the phone conversation, the food and disaster management ministry, in a statement yesterday, said the proctor did not introduce himself first and rather uttered the secretary by name and tried to make sure whether he was talking to the secretary.
The explanation, signed by the ministry's Senior Information Officer SM Golam Kibria, also expressed shock at the filing of the GD.
