The 13th National Parliament of Bangladesh began its first session under Speaker Major (Retd.) Hafiz Uddin Ahmed, following his election along with Deputy Speaker Kaiser Kamal. The opening day’s proceedings included the presentation of condolence motions for former Prime Minister Begum Khaleda Zia, victims of the July uprising, those killed in the Milestone School and College plane crash, and several other national and international figures. Chief Whip Matiur Rahman Nizami proposed adding the names of Ali Ahsan Mujahid and Delwar Hossain Sayeedi, which the Speaker accepted.
Separate condolence motions were also presented for former Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, Pope Francis, and Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. The session expressed grief over the deaths of 62 former MPs, former President A.Q.M. Badruddoza Chowdhury, and numerous cultural, academic, and civic figures. Another motion honored those killed between 2007 and August 2024 in struggles for democracy and human rights.
The Parliament stated that additional names of distinguished individuals omitted from the list could later be included upon submission to the Secretariat.
