Government Denies Involvement in Zaima Rahman’s UN Appointment; Outlines Outcome of PM Tarique Rahman’s UNGA Visit
PM Adviser Dr. Mahdi Amin speaks to reporters at a press briefing in Dhaka regarding PM Tarique Rahman’s UNGA attendance and government affairs.

The interim government has no involvement in the recruitment of Zaima Rahman, daughter of Prime Minister Tarique Rahman, to the United Nations Headquarters, confirmed Dr. Mahdi Amin, Adviser to the Prime Minister and spokesperson for the Prime Minister's Office (PMO), on Wednesday afternoon (September 30, 2026).

Speaking at a press conference held at the PMO's Kabori Hall in Tejgaon, Dhaka, Dr. Mahdi Amin clarified that Zaima Rahman secured the P-3 position entirely on her professional merits and qualifications, which align with the required five years of specialized experience. Addressing questions regarding Prime Minister Tarique Rahman’s participation at the 81st Session of the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) in New York, the spokesperson highlighted that the Prime Minister held 11 high-level meetings over four days with global leaders, advancing Bangladesh's democratic trajectory, self-reliance, and humanitarian policy commitments. Furthermore, addressing domestic economic challenges and fuel prices, Dr. Amin noted that global market fluctuations stemming from Middle Eastern conflicts have pressured regional energy costs, but affirmed the administration's commitment to mitigating public hardship and maintaining market stability.
