Tarique Rahman Takes Charge: A New Era for Bangladesh

Tarique Rahman has been inaugurated as Bangladesh's prime minister in a ceremony attended by top officials from both Bangladesh and India. His rise marks the end of an interim government period led by Nobel Laureate Muhammad Yunus and ushers in a new chapter for the nation.

The ceremony, held at the South Plaza of the Jatiya Sangsad, marked a departure from tradition, with President Mohammed Shahabuddin administering the oath. Rahman, who returned from exile in December, pledged to fulfill the duties of his office in line with the law and will lead the country for the next five years.

The BNP's electoral victory is a significant shift in Bangladesh's political landscape, with Tarique Rahman calling for national unity to tackle the economic challenges and governance issues facing the country.
