Nobel laureate Professor Muhammad Yunus, who is scheduled to lead the interim government, will arrive in Dhaka soon.
“Nobel Laureate Professor Muhammad Yunus will arrive at Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport, Dhaka on the Emirates flight (EK-582) from Dubai at 2:10 PM Dhaka time (GMT +6) on Thursday 8 August 2024 subject to flight being on time,” said Lamiya Morshed, Executive Director, Yunus Centre.
President Mohammed Shahabuddin on Tuesday night decided to form an interim government headed by the globally acclaimed Nobel Peace laureate.
The decision came from a lengthy meeting held at Bangabhaban where chiefs of three forces, two teachers of Dhaka University and coordinators of Anti-Discrimination Student Movement were present.
In the meeting, student representatives proposed an interim government headed by Dr Yunus. President Sahabuddin agreed with their proposal, said Bangabhaban slightly before zero hours.
