Nobel laureate Dr. Muhammad Yunus returned to Bangladesh today, Thursday, from Paris, France. He landed at Dhaka’s Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport at 2:10 PM. In light of Dr. Yunus’s return, arrangements are underway for the swearing-in ceremony of the interim government at Bangabhaban, scheduled for around 8 PM tonight. At the airport, Dr. Yunus was greeted by Chief of Army Staff General Waker-uz-Zaman and others. General Waker-uz-Zaman revealed at a Wednesday press conference that the interim government might consist of approximately 15 members. The specific names have not yet been disclosed, and there is ongoing discussion about various potential members in political circles. Another topic of discussion is the anticipated duration of the interim government’s term. It is reported that the anti-discrimination student movement has compiled a list of 15 potential members for the interim government. This list will be finalized after discussions with Dr. Yunus following his return.
