President Mohammed Shahabuddin resigned today (24th July, 2026), submitting a letter to the Speaker of parliament under Article 50(3) of the Constitution, roughly halfway through a term set to end in April, 2028.
In the Bengali-language letter on Bangabhaban letterhead, Shahabuddin, 76, cited ill health â heart disease, hypertension, diabetes, kidney complications, a past bypass surgery, and a recent diagnosis of autonomic neuropathy causing episodes of unconsciousness. He said long-term treatment made continuing in office impossible, and defended his record in steering the country through the constitutional crisis that followed the August 2024 uprising.
