He gave this information to reporters at the secretariat on Monday (October 14).

Abdul Mueed Chowdhury said that the committee has submitted a report to the government recommending that the age of entering government service be 35 years for men and 37 years for women. Now the government will take the final decision after the discussion in the advisory council.

Abdul Mueed Chowdhury said, girls have been given a slightly different age. We have given it to girls because it is not possible for girls to take the test at the same age as boys. There are family obligations, marriages, children. So they can come. Besides, the number of our female officers is relatively less. There is a quota, but it is not so full yet.
