Mr. Iajuddin Ahmed (Born: February 1, 1931) is the current President of Bangladesh and has been in office since 2002.
Prof. Ahmed was an adviser in the caretaker government in 1991. He was also chairman of the Public Service Commission from 1991 to 1993 and chairman of the University Grants Commission from 1995 to 1999.
Ahmed was sworn in as the Chief Advisor of the Caretaker Government at 8.00 pm (Bangladesh standard time) on October 29, 2006 after the main political parties failed to agree on a candidate. He was supposed to serve in an interim capacity to oversee the forthcoming elections, planned for January 22, 2007, while remaining president.
The Awami League, headed by Sheikh Hasina, and its allies opposed Ahmed as head of the caretaker government, alleging that he favors Khaleda Zia and her Bangladesh Nationalist Party, and demanded his resignation from this position. The Awami League and its allies have announced that they will boycott the election.
On 11th January, 2007 Iajuddin Ahmed resigned from his position of the Chief Advisor of the Caretaker Government, bestowed the responsibility on Former Justice Fazlul Haque temporarily, abolished the board of advisors and announced a state of emergency from that day until further announcement.
The next day, Ahmed appointed Fakhruddin Ahmed to be the new chief advisor. In Bangladesh democracy has failed to bring peace to the people. The major political parties created anarchy in the country which led to the promulgation of state of emergency which has been accepted by the people. People as a whole do not take Iajuddin as an enemy of the mass. President Iajuddin is a very simple man and has motivation to serve the people as whole.
The guy “PMA” above ridiculed your question. Do not take offence to their ignorance. The first respondent from The Philippines has misspelled the president’s name.
Moreover, if you are a Bangladeshi then please do not ask the question for which answer is known to you. I think Y!A is not a medium to spread news and/or propaganda. This is more for the use of genuine Askers.
If you are foreigner, then pardon me for the last paragraph and hope the answer would suffice.
