The Caretaker Government of Bangladesh ((ベンガル語:বাংলাদেশের তত্ত্বাবধায়ক সরকার)) is a form of government system in which the country is ruled by a selected government for an interim period during the transition from one elected government to another, after the completion of tenure of the former. As the outgoing government hands over its power, the caretaker government comes into place. Top members of the caretaker government do not represent any political party; nor are they allowed to contest the elections. The main objective of the caretaker government is to create an environment in which an election can be held in a free and fair manner without political influence by the outgoing government. It is not empowered to take any policy decisions unless it is necessary. The head of the Caretaker government is called the Chief Adviser (in place of Prime Minister) and is selected by the President. The Chief Adviser selects the other advisers. The top positions of the administration are generally distributed among the advisers. The Chief Adviser and the other advisers are committed for their activities to the President. ==History== In 1990 three party alliances discussed creating a better environment for elections. They jointly made a demand for it. After the forced resignation of General Hussain Muhammad Ershad, the three alliances nominated Chief Justice Shahabuddin Ahmed as the Chief Adviser. A caretaker government is headed by a Chief Adviser, who enjoys the same power as the regular prime minister of the country except in defense matters. The Advisers function as Ministers. Since 1996, a Caretaker government has managed the elections and transitions of 1996, 2001 and 2008. Although the first caretaker government was intended to help the transition from authoritarianism to democracy, this system was adopted as part of the Constitution in 1996 by the Sixth Parliament. It was dominated by Bangladesh Nationalist Party, which yielded to opposition pressure. In Bangladesh, a Caretaker Government (CTG) ruled for the period of 1990-91 with the understanding of the major political party alliances. Later, CTGs were formed within the constitutional framework in 1996, 2001 and 2006. The 13th amendment to the constitution was passed in the parliament formalizing this arrangement. In addition, an extra-constitutional military-backed CTG was installed in 2007; it governed the country without legitimacy, but ultimately handed over power to the elected political party following the 29 December 2008 parliamentary election. They were under pressure internationally to yield to a democratically elected government. According to the provision (before abolishment) of CTG in the Bangladesh Constitution, there were six options to appoint a Chief Advisor (CA). The last option of CA is the President. The CTG had to hold an election within 90 days and in 120 days could hand over power to the duly elected political party. The daily operations of government, routine duties, and holding parliamentary election are the mandated responsibilities of the CTG. Caretaker Government is very popular in Bangladesh although it is a contradiction with constitution. Recently Pakistan and Greece have also adopted this model to hold elections and overcome political stalemate.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Daily Manab Zamin - )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Caretaker government of Bangladesh」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
