A group of job seekers of Rajshahi University on Monday demanded the recruitment test for appointing 45000 assistant teachers in the primary schools be held centrally in Dhaka.
They came up with the demand at a press conference held at Rajshahi University central library on Monday noon.
In a written statement, the former and current students of the university said in the previous years, there have been many irregularities including question paper leakage and proxy examinees in the exams, which were held at the district level.
If the primary teacher recruitment test is held at the district level, there could be terrible corruption, they said.

The job seekers said an insidious group tries to take the recruitment test at the district level at any cost. By doing so, they want to leak the question papers or occupy the centre to facilitate the recruitment of their designated ineligible candidates.
If the examination is held centrally in Dhaka, then the authority will be able to complete the primary teacher recruitment examination neatly as well as all other job examinations.
