ACC to check 'admission trade' in schools
Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) Chairman Iqbal Mahmud yesterday said they have formed a separate team to check on "admission trade" in the schools enjoying the government's monthly pay order (MPO) facility.
"All the schools under MPO are government institutions [as they receive government's money]. The government has a right in those institutions that receive its money. We have formed the team so that none can get involved in admission trade in those institutions," he said.
The ACC boss made the remarks while talking to reporters after emerging from a programme marking the ten years of Biddyaniketon School in Narayanganj.
"We do not want to see that people admit their children into schools paying extra money, because admission trade is a corruption," he said, adding that a team had already started working to check on the corruption practices in schools.
Earlier, he asked the students to obtain real education. Getting GPA 5 is not an education; real education is something that helps our lives, he added.
