The central bank announced the decision to postpone the tests in a notice on Saturday citing “inevitable” reasons. “But everyone knows that it is impossible to hold such a large test amid the COVID-19 pandemic,” said Arief Hossain Khan, a general manager of the central bank and member secretary of the Bankers’ Selection Committee. The one-hour Multiple Choice Question tests were scheduled to be held in 67 centres in Dhaka from 10am on Dec 5. The government on Saturday logged 36 new virus deaths in 24 hours, raising the toll to 6,580. With the latest deaths, the toll saw a 30 percent weekly rise.
