Speaking to the media at the Secretariat on Sunday (Dec 22), Cabinet member Quader said that the party's policymaking Presidium is scheduled for a meeting on Tuesday when the full committee will be finalised.

Following the two-day triennial council on Dec 21 and 22,  several posts, including that of organising secretary, religious affairs secretary, commerce and industry, treasurer, finance secretary, information and research secretary are still vacant.

Besides, he said, the names of working committee members are yet to be announced.

Party councillors elected them for the next three years on the second day of the two-day council at the Institution of Engineers, Bangladesh in the city.

Three new faces -- Shajahan Khan, Jahangir Kabir Nanak and Abdur Rahman-- were inducted into the Presidium, while all of the 14 previous members retained their seats on the party’s highest decision-making body.
