Two student representatives serving as advisers in Bangladesh’s interim government, Mahfuz Alam and Asif Mahmud Sajib Bhuiyan, have resigned from their posts. Mahfuz Alam was responsible for the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting, while Asif Mahmud oversaw the Local Government, Rural Development and Cooperatives, and Youth and Sports ministries. Their resignations were submitted to Chief Adviser Dr. Muhammad Yunus during a meeting on December 10, according to government sources. Officials confirmed that a press briefing has been scheduled for the evening to address the resignations. The move follows weeks of internal discussions within the advisory council, where senior members reportedly urged both advisers to step down as early as mid-September. Despite earlier resistance, both eventually agreed to resign. The interim government, formed under Yunus’s leadership after the fall of Sheikh Hasina’s administration in August 2023, had included three student leaders from the July uprising. The dual resignations may signal internal realignments within the transitional administration as it prepares for the next phase of political stabilization and possible elections.
