The Council of Advisers of the interim government is set for expansion on Sunday, with new members expected to take oath later in the evening.
“Yes, it’s getting expanded. But I can’t tell you the number at this moment,” a senior official of the interim government told UNB.
The oath-taking ceremony is scheduled to take place at the Darbar Hall of Bangabhaban in the presence of senior government officials and dignitaries.
Cabinet Division sources said five vehicles were prepared in advance.
The vehicles will be sent to the advisers’ homes to pick them up, and then they will be brought to Bangabhaban for the oath-taking ceremony.
The current interim government, headed by Chief Adviser Prof Muhammad Yunus, has 20 advisers.
Meanwhile, Chief of Army Staff General Waker-Uz-Zaman paid a courtesy call on Chief Adviser Dr Muhammad Yunus earlier in the day at his Tejgaon office.
Details of the meeting were not disclosed.
