Margins of the appointment of the Minister of Roads and Urban Development
Mehrdad Bazarpash’s candidacy for the head of the Audit Court was met with opposition. Among them, Ahmad Tawakli, the former member of the parliament, in a letter to Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf, the speaker of the parliament, requested a reconsideration of his nomination for this post. In this letter, it was pointed out that there is no “sufficient experience and relevant education” of Bazarpash to head the Audit Court. Tavakoli claimed: “Comment 1 of Article 51 of the Parliament’s Internal Regulations says that the candidate must have at least 20 years of work experience. While the mentioned work experience does not even reach 17 years. He had criticized that Bazarpash considered his work experience in the student Basij organization as his work experience, which according to the law is not considered as employment.
Ehsan Arkani, the representative of the people of Neyshabur, Firuzeh and Zabarkhan in the Islamic Council, said that regarding the doubt created about the 20-year work experience of Bazarpash, one of the conditions for the candidacy of the head of the Audit Court, he wrote: “The records and documents of 20 years of work experience were asked from him and Mr. Bazerpash also presented all the documents of his work history, which was “from the beginning of 1379″, and this was done by Mr. Engineer Mansour Rahimi, the commander of the 27th Mohammad Rasulullah Division’s demolition battalion, a graduate of Sharif University and the head of the research institute where Mr. Bazerpash worked during the years 1379 to 1382.
