Chief Adviser to the interim government Prof Muhammad Yunus tonight redistributed portfolios of seven advisers, hours after three new faces were inducted into the advisory council.
Among the new appointees, Sk Bashir Uddin got the portfolio of the commerce ministry as well as the ministry of jute and textile. Mostofa Sarwar Farooki has been made the adviser of the cultural affairs ministry.
However, another newly appointed adviser Mahfuj Alam did not get any ministry.
