Advisers to the interim government will continue their regular duties until a new cabinet is formed following the 13th National Parliamentary Election. Article 57(3) of the constitution allows the prime minister to remain in office until a successor assumes charge, while Article 58(4) ensures that ministers, state ministers, and deputy ministers continue in their posts until their successors take office. Shipping Adviser M Sakhawat Hossain said he would continue working until the last moment, adding: “No directives have been issued from the chief adviser’s office. We will continue our work until the last moment.” Commerce Adviser Sheikh Bashir Uddin’s office said advisers will report on Sunday, though no pending work or files require signatures. Adviser for Liberation War Affairs and Disaster Management and Relief Faruk-e-Azam said he will report to the secretariat Sunday, noting that legally advisers can continue work until the new government forms.
