BNP Chairperson’s adviser Md Aminur Rashid Yasin has been appointed minister in charge of three ministries—Agriculture, Food, and Fisheries and Livestock—despite being denied nomination in the recent 13th national election. The appointment, confirmed by a phone call from the Cabinet Secretary on Tuesday morning, sparked widespread celebration in Cumilla, where supporters described it as a deserved recognition of his long political service.
According to party sources, Yasin had previously contested elections in 2008 and 2018 from Cumilla Sadar but was unsuccessful, though he was elected MP from Cumilla-9 in 1996. After withdrawing his independent candidacy following a meeting with BNP Chairperson Tarique Rahman on January 19, he coordinated election efforts in six southern Cumilla constituencies, helping the party secure five seats. Yasin expressed gratitude to Prime Minister Tarique Rahman and pledged to serve with honesty and intelligence.
Following the announcement, Cumilla city witnessed spontaneous celebrations, including fireworks and sweets distribution. Supporters said Yasin’s appointment healed the disappointment caused by his earlier nomination exclusion.
