Nov 15 morning: Cabinet, Fardin murder, Momen, Student politics and School admissions

Good morning. If you’re waking to a horde of texts from last night — like General Secretary Obaidul Quader who complained about receiving night calls from Bangladesh Chhatra League — then catching up with the news can seem cumbersome. So, here are five quick things to know to start your day up-to-date.

Are you 'satisfied' with our diplomacy?

It is particularly disheartening and a cause for grave concern as the standard of our diplomacy has been questioned by domestic as well as foreign media.

Only PM has the authority to decide on Momen, says Quader 

Road Transport and Bridges Minister Obaidul Quader today said that he did not know whether Foreign Minister Abdul Momen would lose the portfolio for his recent controversial statement.

“There’s a debate about Momen’s remarks, its accuracy”

The government of India has no comment on the recent remarks the Bangladesh foreign minister made, noting that there is a debate about its accuracy.

“Foreign Minister not a party member, AL shouldn’t be embarrassed”

Awami League Presidium Member Abdur Rahman today (August 20, 2022) said Foreign Minister Abdul Momen is not a party member and so there is no reason to misunderstand Awami League for the statement he made on seeking India’s help for sustaining the government.
