Chief Adviser Prof Muhammad Yunus on Sunday urged members of the Army Headquarters Selection Board to promote officers who have demonstrated capable leadership throughout their military careers while remaining above political ideology.
The chief adviser’s instruction came when he formally inaugurated the "Army Headquarters Selection Board-2025" at the Army Headquarters in the capital.
Prof Yunus said the officers who are honest, ethical and professional and have leadership qualities deserve higher promotions.
He emphasized the professional skills, leadership qualities, standards of discipline, honesty, trustworthiness and loyalty and above all, suitability for employment of the officers for promotion.
In this first phase of the promotion board, eligible officers of the rank of Colonel and Lieutenant Colonel of the Bangladesh Army will be considered for further promotion, according to ISPR.
