Prime Minister Tarique Rahman held his first cabinet meeting at the Secretariat on Wednesday, directing ministry and department heads to prioritize three key issues: controlling essential commodity prices, improving law and order, and ensuring stable electricity supply during Ramadan and the upcoming summer season. The meeting marked his first official engagement after taking office as Bangladesh’s 11th prime minister.
The meeting was attended by 25 ministers, 24 state ministers, and 10 advisers. Home Minister Salahuddin Ahmed told reporters that the cabinet’s initial focus would be on maintaining price stability, public safety, and uninterrupted power supply. Information and Broadcasting Minister Zahir Uddin Swapan said relevant ministries and agencies would soon submit progress reports on implementing the prime minister’s directives.
Tarique Rahman urged secretaries to implement the pledges made in the BNP’s election manifesto and assured that merit and competence would be valued in the administration. The new BNP-led government, formed after the 13th national election, began its first day with tributes at the National Memorial and the graves of former leaders before convening at the Secretariat.
