- Tajuddin_Ahmad abstract "Tajuddin Ahmad (Bengali: তাজউদ্দিন আহমেদ) (July 23, 1925 – November 3, 1975) was a Bangladeshi statesman and freedom fighter. He served as the first Prime Minister of Bangladesh and lead the wartime Provisional Government during the Bangladesh Liberation War in 1971. Ahmad is regarded as one of the most influential and instrumental figures in the birth of Bangladesh, due to his leadership of the provisional government in 1971, in which he united the various political, military and cultural forces of Bangladeshi nationalism. A close confidante of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, Ahmad was the General Secretary of the Awami League in the late 1960s and early 70s. He coordinated the League’s election campaign for the Pakistani general election, 1970, in which the League gained a historic parliamentary majority to form government. Ahmad, along with Mujib and Dr. Kamal Hossain, led negotiations with President Yahya Khan and Zulfikar Ali Bhutto for the transfer of power to the elected National Assembly. After the Pakistan Army launched Operation Searchlight against Bengali nationalists in March 1971, Ahmad made his way into neighboring India, upon the instructions of Sheikh Mujib (who was detained by Pakistani forces). As war erupted across East Pakistan, Ahmad sought the alliance of Indian Prime Minister Indira Gandhi in the fight for Bangladesh's independence. Along with senior Bengali political and military leaders, he formed the first Government of Bangladesh in Meherpur in April 1971, in which he was made Prime Minister. The war administration subsequently moved to Calcutta as a government-in-exile. Under his premiership, Ahmad presided over the creation of the Bangladesh Forces; and the majority of Bengali bureaucrats, diplomats and military officers serving Pakistan defected to the new Government of Bangladesh. He was a key figure in supervising and mandating war efforts; and initiated numerous diplomatic and cultural missions which toured world capitals advocating the Bangladesh cause. Ahmad would regularly visit the liberated regions of Bangladesh and inspire the Mukti Bahini and other freedom fighters to vigorously pursue the struggle. After the liberation of Bangladesh, Ahmad became Finance Minister in the Mujib government in 1972. He resigned from the cabinet in 1974 and fell out with Mujib over the creation of the one-party system of BAKSAL. After the Mujib assassination in August 1975, Ahmad was arrested by the martial law government. Along with four other top League leaders, he was executed by members of the military in Dhaka Central Jail on 4 November 1975. Ahmad is one of modern Bangladesh's most respected political figures. His wife Begum Zohra Tajuddin headed the Awami League from 1975 to 1981. His son Tanjim Ahmad was the Minister of State for Home Affairs in the Sheikh Hasina cabinet in 2009, however he resigned after just a year in office. Ahmed's second daughter Simeen Hussain was elected as a Member of Parliament from the League in 2012.".
