Friday’s announcement came as a sign that the rift between late party founder HM Ershad’s brother Quader and widow Raushon is very much alive after Quader took over formally through the recent national council.
Quader has made his wife Sherifa Quader, sister Marina Rahman and niece Mehe Zebunnesa Rahman Tumpa advisers. Marina is a former MP while Sherifa, a singer, was known as an organiser of cultural functions. Tumpa had married Presidium Member Ziauddin Ahmed Bablu in 2017.
The Jatiya Party chief has also made Ershad’s son Rahgir Al Mahi Shad joint secretary general, but he had been named a co-chairman by his mother two days ago.
