Bangladesh’s Ministry of Public Administration has cancelled the remaining term of journalist Faisal Mahmud’s contractual appointment as Minister (Press) at the country’s High Commission in New Delhi. The order, issued on Sunday, February 15, states that the cancellation was made under Article 8 of the agreement signed between the government and Mahmud.
Faisal Mahmud, editor of Bangla Outlook, had been appointed to the position on September 24, 2024, for a two-year term following the fall of the Awami League government during the 2024 movement. At that time, the interim government made several changes in diplomatic positions, including at the Delhi mission.
The cancellation comes just before the formation of a new BNP-led government following its sweeping victory in the February 12 election, marking another administrative adjustment by the interim authority ahead of the transition of power.
