The coordinators of Anti-Discriminatory Student Movement this morning proposed Nobel Laureate Dr Mohammad Yunus as the chief advisor of the interim government.
In a video posted on social media, Nahid Islam, one of the coordinators of the movement, claimed that they have already talked with Prof Yunus and he has given his consent considering the present situation of the country.
Nahid, flanked by two other coordinators, said the widespread violence is being carried out by the “ousted fascists and their collaborators” to foil the revolution.
“We took 24 hours to announce a framework for the interim government. However, considering the emergency situation, we are announcing it now,” Nahid said referring to the indiscriminate firing and attacks on temples and widespread looting in various places.
“We have decided that the interim government would be formed where internationally renowned Nobel Laureate Dr Mohammad Yunus, who has wide acceptability, would be the chief adviser,” Nahid announced.
“We want to see the process rolling by the morning. We urge the president to take steps as soon as possible to form an interim government headed by Dr Yunus,” Nahid added.
He said the names of the remaining members of their proposed interim government would be announced later in the day.
