Md. Nahid Parvez has been reported working simultaneously in three positions: as a lecturer at an MPO-affiliated college, as Head of Department at a private university, and also employed in a seed company. This raises concerns over violations of rules and regulations.

Details of Employment

According to regulations, private educational institutions and MPO guidelines prohibit a teacher from simultaneously holding multiple positions or any other profitable posts. Despite this, Nahid Parvez continues to hold two key roles in the education sector: lecturer at Shaheedul Islam Degree College and Head of Department at First Capital University of Bangladesh.

Statements from Involved Parties

• Md. Nahid Parvez: “I do not see any wrongdoing here. I am employed in a college and a university according to my qualifications. There is no reason for writing or reporting on this matter. You may visit me when you have time.”
• Rafiqul Islam, Principal of Shaheedul Islam Degree College: “I am not aware if the lecturer works elsewhere. No one has ever informed me about this matter.”
• Nafiul Islam Joryaddar, Deputy Registrar, First Capital University of Bangladesh: “Nahid Parvez is serving as Head of the Department of Agriculture and also conducts regular classes in the department.”
• Lutfur Rahman, District Education Officer: “One individual cannot hold teaching positions in two institutions simultaneously. An investigation will be conducted and legal action taken against the teacher if necessary.”

Key Points

• MPO rules explicitly prohibit teachers from holding multiple positions in educational institutions simultaneously.
• Holding overlapping roles in both an MPO-affiliated college and a private university constitutes a potential breach of employment regulations.
• Authorities have confirmed that an official investigation will be carried out, which may result in legal or administrative action against the lecturer.
