Principal Md. Shafikul Islam of Shamshernagar Government Degree College in Jhenaidah is facing serious allegations of experience fraud and holding dual jobs simultaneously. Local residents are demanding a swift investigation into the matter.
According to allegations, although the college was nationalized on August 11, 2021, Shafikul Islam joined as principal on January 12, 2010. Previously, he joined GT College in Kotchandpur upazila as an English lecturer in March 2004. Rules require 15 years of college-level teaching experience for a degree college principal, which he lacked at the time of joining.
Review of documents regarding position creation and temporary appointment revealed various inconsistencies. Although a 2022 Directorate of Secondary and Higher Education proposal mentioned lower-step salary fixation due to lack of required experience, he was eventually granted a temporary appointment as principal through a ministry notification in December 2023.
