Chief Adviser Muhammad Yunus is scheduled to visit Chattogram, his home district, tomorrow for the first time since assuming office.

He will attend the fifth convocation of the University of Chittagong as the chief guest.

To mark his visit, the Bangladesh Railway Authority has organised a foundation stone-laying ceremony for the construction of a rail-and-road bridge over the Karnaphuli river at Kalurghat.

Due to the chief adviser's tight schedule, the event will be held as a brief programme between 11:45am and 1:15pm at the Chattogram Circuit House, said Fahmun Nabi, assistant commissioner of the Chattogram District Administration.

Following the university event, Yunus will travel to his ancestral home in Bathua village of Shikarpur union under Hathazari upazila.

At 5:00pm, he will visit the graves of his grandparents at a cemetery beside the Nurali Bari Sub-Post Office.

He is also expected to exchange greetings with relatives and locals in a nearby field.
