Sources said the mass transfer is part of the ongoing restructuring of field administration ahead of the upcoming 13th national parliamentary election to ensure neutrality and efficiency.
This follows:
- Wednesday evening: Posting of new UNOs in 166 upazilas
- Wednesday afternoon: Transfer of SPs in all 64 districts
- Mid-November: Transfer of at least 50 Deputy Commissioners
The sweeping changes at district and upazila levels underline the interim government’s drive to overhaul the administration before the polls.
