Deputy governor Nurun Nahar to look after routine work until BB gets a new head

 

Bangladesh Bank on Sunday conducted some operational activities after the finance ministry tasked Deputy Governor Nurun Nahar to look after the routine work until a new governor is appointed.


Four deputy governors and head of Bangladesh Financial Intelligence Unit (BFIU) also returned to the central bank.
Nurun Nahar will look after the governor's daily work until the new governor is appointed, according to an official order signed by Deputy Secretary of the Financial Institution Division (FID) Afsana Bilkis on Sunday.

Two days after the fall of Sheikh Hasina's government the four deputy governors and the head of BFIU left their desks in the central bank in the face of protests on Wednesday. They are - Kazi Sayedur Rahman, Nurun Nahar, Khurshid Alam and Dr. Md. Habibur Rahman. Among them, Kazi Sayedur Rahman signed the resignation letter on a plain paper under the pressure of angry officials. BFIU chief Masud Biswas of deputy governor rank also left his office under pressure.
 
Since BB Governor Abdur Rouf Talukder has stepped down, the deputy governors will carry out their daily activities in their respective fields from August 11 until the new governor joins.
