Professor Debashish Debnath, principal of Moulvibazar Government College and his syndicate have joined the great festival of corruption. Ever since he joined the college, he has dominated singles. Built a powerful syndicate of loyal teachers.

Regular withdrawal of money from various departments of the college, embezzlement of money by fake bill vouchers, extorting money from students in the name of appreciation and certificates, holding hostage of teachers and employees outside the syndicate, retaining employees of their choice without any appointment even after retirement and private government work. There are no end of complaints against the principal including using the car.

The education environment of the highest university of the district is broken due to such corruption of the principal. He committed these misdeeds and corruption in the name of Awami League.

It is known that Professor Debashish Debnath took charge as the principal on 20 April 2022. Since taking responsibility, he has been discussed and criticized in various ways. The principal was busy with his own sugarcane instead of improving the quality of education.

Meanwhile, on Tuesday, the leaders of the anti-discrimination student movement submitted a petition containing 9-point demands to the vice-principal. The petition demands the resignation of the principal within the next 48 hours.

According to the investigation, in the current year 2018-19 academic year, BSS, BA, BSC and BBS students have withdrawn 1 lakh rupees by talking about educational tour. But did not go on educational tour. He made huge irregularities in the repair of buses. Internal and external: He cheated by withdrawing extra money in the name of sports competition.

Extreme irregularities have also been committed in the construction and repair sector. According to the circular of National University, principal and vice-principal are supposed to get 10,000 honorarium in internal, board and public examinations. By breaking the rules, the principal took 30/40 thousand rupees from each examination committee. A copy of such a bill has been received.

In honors third year examination (2022) the principal has received 29 thousand 5 hundred 10 taka and the vice principal 26 thousand 8 hundred 98 taka from the convening committee. A teacher of the economics department who did not want to be named said, I also gave 30 thousand taka to the principal in an exam.

But I billed 10 thousand taka. I gave him an additional bill of 20,000 taka in my name. Heads of departments of two other departments said the same. In the name of appreciation and certificate, 100 taka is collected from the students without receipt. This money was shared by the principal and assistant principal. On April 25, the principal dismissed the cook Rabia Begum under influence.

Later, under the pressure of various quarters, 30 people were newly appointed. Jasmin, the daughter of cook Rabia Begum, said, “My mother worked at Sir’s house despite her illness.” After being released, I, my mother and aunt went and held the feet of Sir’s wife and cried for 1 hour but did not get shelter.

College Hayes car used for personal work. Family and relatives also use this car. However, if the students wanted to go to Dhaka this year to participate in the Zarigan competition at the national level, they were not given a car. Car driver Eamon Mia said, sometimes sir takes home. Bus driver Ankar Mia said that in this financial year the repair work of the bus has been done for about 1 lakh taka. I don’t know if anyone did anything outside of this.

The recently retired Chief Assistant Qazi Mohammad Borhan Uddin retired on February 29, 2023. Sharbari Dev joined as principal assistant in April. Even then, Borhan Uddin Adhyavadi is sitting and working in the administrative building. Sources say that the principal has kept Borhan Uddin out of order to prepare the irregular documents. He assisted the principal in making fake bill vouchers.

In this syndicate of principals, the head of accounting science department Md. Sharifur Rahman, physical education teacher Mosammat Nurun Nahar, current principal assistant Sharbari Dev and accounting assistant Abul Bashar. Abul Bashar Moulvibazar is working as a master roll in the college after retiring from the office of the District Commissioner.

But revenue, accounting assistant, cashier and office assistant

Cum-computer cashiers are having a lazy time. They have no place to sit. Even after retiring from the revenue service, Md. Farid was appointed to the role of master in the position of cash government.

Several revenue employees (who have not been named for privacy) said there was no place to sit since joining. Placed temporarily in different places without giving original responsibility. But the master role is being worked with the employees preferred by the principal.

On the condition of anonymity (video and audio are reserved to the reporter), several department heads said that 2 percent of the budget from each management committee should be paid to the principal to face the audit. 10,000 taka to be paid from the seminar.

A regular student of the college said that the principal embezzled a large amount of money in the name of Bangabandhu Karnar. He also embezzled the money for worship. We want the removal of the principal. After he joined the entire education system was destroyed.

Md. Sharifur Rahman, Head of Accountancy Department, asked for information regarding construction and repair and internal audit, he did not provide information. Behaves badly with the reporter.

Principal Professor Debashish Debnath said, Why are you looking for them? There is no car in the college, there are various problems including class rooms, he wrote about them. In response to a question, the principal said that they actually have to pay for the audit. If not, they show various problems and cause trouble. Auditors have to send a part to Dhaka. He said that the freshers don’t know the job about keeping employees outside the rules in the college.That’s why the old ones have to be kept. Acknowledging the fact of taking money for appreciation and certificates, they are spent a lot on office work. On the second day, the principal did not give time to the reporter when he asked for more information on these issues.
