Yunus keeps defence, edu and 25 other portfolios
The New Indian Express|August 10, 2024
BANGLADESH'S interim leader Muhammad Yunus on Friday announced the portfolios of his 16-member council of advisors and named a former top diplomat to head the foreign ministry, who underlined the importance of maintaining a "balance" in Dhaka's relations with the "big powers".
Yunus keeps defence, edu and 25 other portfolios

The 84-year-old Nobel laureate's first task is to bring stability to Bangladesh after he responded to a call by student protesters for him to temporarily lead the country following weeks of deadly anti-government demonstrations against the government led by Sheikh Hasina. Yunus was sworn in on Thursday as the head of an interim government following the toppling of Prime Minister Hasina's government and the dissolution of parliament on Monday. He is also a longtime critic of Hasina, who fled to India following the political turmoil in Dhaka. Yunus was sworn in as the chief advisor - a position equivalent to prime minister. Other advisors were selected in consultation with student leaders, the military, and civil society representatives.
