LONDON: Eminent journalist and a prominent freedom fighter’s son Nadeem Qadir joined the office of the Press Minister of Bangladesh High Commission in the United Kingdom on Monday.

Government last year made Nadeem press minister for two years. But he could not join on time due to official complexities.

On the arrival of Nadeem in the morning local time, officials of the high commission warmly welcomed the new press minister there.

Expressing his reaction after joining the office, Nadeem told banglanews that he came there with a big responsibility, which is also a big challenge for him.

The new press minister also sought cooperation from people concerned in performing his duties there.
