The BNP-Jamaat government appointed "300 party cadres" as upazila election officers ahead of the elections scheduled for January, 2007, said Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina's son and ICT Adviser Sajeeb Wazed Joy on Friday.

"In the history of Bangladesh, there has never been such quick recruitment through the Public Service Commission (PSC)," Joy wrote on his verified Facebook account.

The government led by Khaleda Zia tarnished the PSC and the recruitment process in government jobs by making these appointments based on the list and without any examination, he added.
