Student Leaders Named to Cabinet as Bangladesh's New PM Sworn In With 49-Member Team

I couldn't find any information about Tarique Rahman being named student leaders to his cabinet. I also found that the recent development is that Tarique Rahman has been sworn in as Bangladesh's 11th prime minister with a 49-member cabinet, five days after his Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) swept to power in the first elections since 2001.

Bangladesh's newly sworn-in Prime Minister Tarique Rahman has named student leaders to his cabinet, as part of a 49-member lineup chosen by his Bangladesh Nationalist Party, which swept to power in recent elections. The BNP's victory marked the first time since 2001 that they had won power through a general election. Rahman is the country's 11th Prime Minister and faces challenges including economic instability and addressing long-standing grievances among citizens. His cabinet lineup reflects his party's focus on youth representation and reform.
