Farooq-e-Azam gets Liberation War Ministry

Freedom fighter Farooq-e-Azam will act as the adviser for Liberation War Affairs Ministry.

The Cabinet Division issued a notification on Tuesday announcing his portfolio.

He was sworn in as an adviser to the interim government led by Professor Dr Muhammad Yunus this morning.

On August 8, the interim government, which was formed following the fall of Sheikh Hasina-led government, took oath.

On the day, Farooq-e-Azam could not attend the oath-taking ceremony as he was abroad at that time.
