Staff Reporter :
A three member probe body has been formed in connection with the Sunday’s protest and demonstration rally at the PWD headquarters.
The Ministry of Housing and Public Works on Monday formed the body led by an additional secretary of the Ministry.
 “The body has been asked to produce its report within seven working days,” Md Shahidullah Khandaker, Secretary for
 the Ministry, told The New Nation on Monday night.  
A group of PWD officials reported to be the supporters of the outgoing Chief Engineer Hafizur Rahman Tipu Munshi organised the rally defying an order in this regard by the ministry.
They staged the rally at the PWD headquarters premises.
Kader Chowdhury, SE, Circle-1, Dhaka, has asked the PDW employees and officials to remain present at the protest and demonstration rally through SMS by his cell phone.
The SMS reads, “For protecting the image of PWD, all employees are earnestly requested to attend the protest and demonstration function in the PWD area tomorrow (Sunday) at 10 AM.”
When asked, Kader Chowdhury told The New Nation yesterday that he was busy and not ready to talk with the matter.
 “They held the programme defying the ministry’s ban on it which is a ‘breach of disciplinary and regulatory code of conduct’. We will take next course of action after getting the report,” Md Shahidullah Khandaker said.
