Three more advisors were added to the advisory council of the interim government.
They are Special Assistant to the Chief Advisor Mahfuz Alam, Film director, producer, screenwriter Mostafa Sarwar Farooki and businessman Sheikh Bashir Uddin.
President Sahabuddin administered the oath to the new advisers on Sunday (November 10) at 7:30 pm at Bangabhaban.
Earlier, while talking to reporters at the Secretariat on Sunday (November 10) evening Cabinet Secretary Sheikh Abdur Rashid said that the Advisory Council of the Interim Government expands.
It is to be noted that Sheikh Hasina fled to India after resigning from the post of Prime Minister in the mass uprising of students on August 5. The cabinet was dissolved that day. The next day on August 6, the President dissolved the 12th National Parliament. Then the interim government was sworn in on August 8. The Nobel Peace Prize-winning economist Dr. Muhammad Yunus took oath as the Chief Advisor of the Interim Government. 16 advisors were appointed at that time. The three advisors could not take oath that day as they were out of Dhaka and the country. They later took the oath. Four more advisors joined the interim government later.
