Prime Minister Tarique Rahman today sought the government official’s effective role in implementing electoral pledges saying that his government is committed to implement all the pledges made in his party’s election manifesto.
“The people have given their verdict in favor of our manifesto. Therefore, the present democratic government is committed to implement the election manifesto and every clause and every commitment of the July Charter signed before the people,” he said.
The premier added: “I hope you will, with your talent and competence, play a role to efficiently implement every promise made by the government to the people. To uphold the trust that the people have placed in us, transparency, accountability, and strong practice of ethics must be ensured in every sector”.
Tarique Rahman, also ruling BNP chairman, made the remarks while addressing an event at the Bangladesh Institute of Administration and Management (BIAM) Foundation Auditorium after laying the foundation stone of a training center-cum-dormitory building at BIAM Foundation in the capital this morning.
Noting that he does not raise the question whether the government officials were able to properly perform their responsibilities during the fascist regime or whether they were capable of doing so, he said, “I want to give you a message from the present democratic government at this moment. The promises we have made to the country and the people are not merely political promises, they are our contract with the people”.
“You are positioned at the highest administrative level of state governance. The responsibilities you perform are not limited to handling documents or administrative supervision; rather you are the main foundation of the functionality, continuity, and stability of the state machinery,” the prime minister said.
“In building a strong, accountable, lawful and people-friendly state system, you are the main driving force on whose professionalism, efficiency, moral strength and administrative wisdom the nation’s development depends,” he added.
Noting that the impact of each of the decisions of the government officials sometimes falls on a family, sometimes on a region, or sometimes on the entire nation, he said, “Therefore, your responsibility is not merely administrative but also a very important moral and constitutional responsibility”.
