Barrister Mutasim Billah Faruqui and Syed Mohidul Hasan have been elected as president and secretary general of BCS Taxation Association, said a press release.

The 49-member executive committee was elected at an emergency meeting at the office of the association in the old headquarters of the National Board of Revenue (NBR) last Monday.

The new panel was elected in tune with changes to executive committees of various associations after the interim government came to office following the ouster of the Sheikh Hasina-led government in early August last year.

In continuation to this, the previous executive committee of BCS Taxation Association was dissolved at an emergency meeting and the new panel was formed, said a press release.
