Staff Correspondent
Chief Adviser Dr. Muhammad Yunus departed for New York on Monday morning to attend the 79th United Nations General Assembly (UNGA).
A Qatar Airways QR-643 flight, carrying Prof Yunus, left the Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport in the capital at about 5:05AM.
He will stay in New York for three days and depart for Bangladesh on September 27 after delivering his speech. The chief adviser will lead a 57-member delegation at the general assembly.
This year's UNGA is particularly significant for Bangladesh, as it marks the 50th anniversary of Bangladesh's membership in the United Nations.
