Md Nurul Karim made new CDA chairman

Engineer Md Nurul Karim has been appointed as the chairman of Chattogram Development Authority (CDA) for three years.

Md Nurul Karim has been made chairman, cancelling the appointment of Mohammad Yunus, according to a gazette notification issued on Monday.

The notification was signed by Deputy Secretary Kaniz Fatima of the Ministry of Public Administration’s Contract and Foreign Recruitment Branch.

Yunus, an Awami League leader, was appointed as CDA Chairman on April 24. Although his appointment was for three years, he was removed from his position after just four months and seven days.

Engineer Md Nurul Karim, the newly appointed chairman, hails from the Shailkupa village in Narayanghat Union, Fatikchhari Upazila of Chattogram.

After the fall of Sheikh Hasina’s government on August 5, there were demands for Yunus’s resignation. CDA officers, employees, and affiliates protested outside the CDA building, calling for his removal.
