Nobel Laureate Professor Dr Muhammad Yunus, who arrived in Dhaka on Thursday afternoon to lead an interim government, said restoring law and order is priority.
“Anarchy and disorder are the biggest enemies,” he said at a press briefing at the Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport after his arrival.
He will be sworn in on Thursday night by President Mohammed Shahabuddin.
Army Chief General Waker-Uz-Zaman, Air Chief Marshal Hasan Mahmood Khan and Chief of Naval Staff Admiral M Nazmul Hassan welcomed Prof Yunus upon his arrival at Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport.
Before leaving Paris, where he had been attending the Olympics, Prof Yunus appealed for calm in Bangladesh amid tensions over the country’s future.
Yunus was named as interim leader following talks among military officials, civic leaders and the student activists who led the uprising against Hasina.
