SK Bashir Gets Charge of Civil Aviation and Tourism Ministry
Commerce Adviser SK Bashir Uddin has been assigned the additional responsibility for the Ministry of Civil Aviation and Tourism.
A gazette notification in this regard was issued by the Cabinet Division on Tuesday.
Bashiruddin has been serving as the adviser to the Ministry of Commerce and the Ministry of Textiles and Jute.
A F Hassan Ariff, who was given the charge of the Ministry of Land and the Ministry of Civil Aviation and Tourism, died on December 20 last year.
