Awami League MP Saber Hossain Chowdhury has been appointed as the "Special Envoy to the Honorable Prime Minister for climate change.”
The Cabinet Division issued a gazette notification for his appointment on Monday.
"This will be an unpaid duty," the notification said. As a result, Saber Hossain Chowdhury will not get a salary and allowances as a special envoy for climate change.
Saber Hossain Chowdhury is currently the chair of the Parliamentary Standing Committee on the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change.
He is the former president of Bangladesh Cricket Board and the former organizing secretary of the Bangladesh Awami League.
