Dhaka: In a large upside -down background of political instability in Bangladesh, Khalilur Rahman has been appointed as National Security Advisor (NSA), which is a very important position for the national security of the country. However, this appointment is a shock for Army Chief General Waqar-e-Zaman. Because this announcement was made at a time when Zaman was on a tour of Russia and Croatia.
Last year, an interim government was formed under the leadership of Mohammad Yunus in Bangladesh after the fall of Sheikh Hasina government. The same government suddenly appointed Khalilur Rahman to the post of NSA on 9 April. This decision has created a stir in political circles, as well as fears that this will deteriorate the balance of power between the army and the government.
People are angry, the possibility of struggle has increased
Sources have revealed that Army Chief General Zaman is extremely unhappy with this appointment. According to analysts, the decision not to take Zaman completely in confidence is being considered unconstitutional and against the honor of the army. According to political experts, this decision may create a conflict between the army and the government and it could have a direct impact on Mohammad Yunus. Political results of the dissatisfaction of the army chief can question the government’s stability.
Khalilur Rahman, a controversial personality
The image of Khalilur Rahman is considered controversial and suspicious. According to analyst Najmul Ahsan Kalimullah, there are about eight advisory foreign passport holders of the Mohammad Yunus government, including Rahman, causing serious doubts about national security. Interestingly, Khalilur Rahman has an American passport and is said to have an inclination towards the US security system. Experts have expressed concern that this may affect their decisions from foreign interests.
Mention of previous controversial incidents
Khalilur Rahman’s name was associated with the murder of a female government employee in 2001. He also had some other disputes. Former military officer and Supreme Court lawyer Sarwar Hussain said that he is therefore required to have a thorough investigation into his background before his appointment to an important post like NSA. Hussain said, “The Yunus government neither conducted any investigation nor any high -level consultation while making this appointment. So this decision seems even more suspicious.”
Signs of political imbalance are clear.
The case has once again indicated power struggle between military and civilian government in Bangladesh. The possibility cannot be ruled out that a political crisis will arise in the coming time due to military dissatisfaction. Many experts believe that Mohammad Yunus is trying to give Khalilur Rahman a status like Ajit Doval of India. However, it is now clear that both the elected person and time were unsuitable.
Will the government face the anger of the army?
Khalilur Rahman’s appointment as NSA is not only an administrative change, but also represents a major change in the power structure of Bangladesh. The dissatisfaction of the Army Chief Zaman, the controversial background of Rahman and the unilateral action of the government – all of these have once again brought Bangladesh to the brink of political instability. There are clear indications that this decision may have political and administrative influence on Muhammad Yunus.
