The ceremony was chaired by Professor Dr Mohammed Farashuddin, Chairperson of the EWU Board of Trustees and former Governor of the Bangladesh Bank. In his remarks, Dr Farashuddin praised Bangladesh Bank's management under Dr Mansur's leadership. He expressed hope that the current governor would be able to introduce an independent pay scale for bank employees and secure a constitutionally recognised position for the post of governor.
Among other distinguished guests were EWU Vice-Chancellor Professor Dr. Shams Rahman, Pro-Vice-Chancellor Professor Dr M Ashik Mosaddik, and Institutional Quality Assurance Cell (IQAC) Director Professor Dr. Sufia Islam, who also addressed the ceremony.
