Bangladesh’s 22nd president, Md Shahabuddin Chuppu, resigned on July 24 after serving for three years and three months. He cited “serious physical illness” for stepping down with one year and nine months remaining in the constitutionally prescribed five-year term. Chuppu had taken office on April 24, 2023, during the Awami League government.
He remained in office after the Awami League government fell in August 2024, and members of the interim government took their oaths before him. Calls for his resignation arose several times over the following year and a half, but the BNP supported his remaining in office amid concerns over constitutional and political crises. In an interview with Reuters last December, he said he felt “humiliated” because of the interim government and wanted to resign after the next election.
After the BNP won the February 12 national election and formed the government, Chuppu administered the oath to its members. His resignation adds him to the list of Bangladeshi presidents who did not complete their terms, including leaders removed amid political upheaval or military intervention, those who resigned, and those killed in military coups.
