Former national footballer Aminul Haque has been appointed as the state minister for the Ministry of Youth and Sports in Bangladesh. Although he contested the national parliamentary election from Dhaka-16 as a BNP candidate and did not win, he has been included in the cabinet as a technocrat state minister. The oath-taking ceremony is scheduled for Tuesday, February 17, 2026, at 4 p.m. at the South Plaza of the National Parliament Building, where Aminul will take his oath.
The new cabinet includes 25 ministers and 24 state ministers, with two appointed under the technocrat quota. Aminul Haque, who once led Bangladesh to victory in the SAFF Championship during his playing career, is one of them. After taking office, he is expected to begin his official duties on the same day and hold discussions with journalists.
His appointment marks the inclusion of a sports personality in the government’s leadership, reflecting recognition of his contributions to national sports and potential to advance youth and sports development.
