Advisers have discussed interim govt term, but no decision made: Yunus

Desk : The interim government will say what its term will be, Chief Adviser Muhammad Yunus said in an interview to Voice of America.

Speaking about the army chief’s recent comment that a transition to democracy should be made within 18 months, Prof Yunus said, “If you want, you can suppose that this is the term of the interim government, but that is not the government’s opinion. The government will have to say what its term will be. Unless the government says so, it cannot be considered the term of the government.

“When you hear it from our mouths, that will be the actual date. The advisory council has discussed the term, but no decision has been made yet,” he said.
