Muhammad Abdul Haque (Bengali: মুহাম্মদ আব্দুল হক), widely known as M A Haque (এম এ হক) (born July 1, 1954 in Balaganj Upazila, Sylhet) is a veteran politician and philanthropist from Sylhet Division. He is the incumbent President of Sylhet Mohanogor BNP.[1]
Political career
Haque joined Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP), one of the two major political parties of Bangladesh, at its early stage. He served the party as the last elected president of Sylhet BNP, leading for more than twelve years from 1993.[2] Haque was nominated as party's organising secretary for the central national committee in 1996[3] succeeding Ilias Ali in 2010.[4] Haque was a candidate for the Mayoral election of Sylhet City Corporation (SCC) but conceded defeat to Badar Uddin Ahmed Kamran (March 20, 2003).[5]
Charity
In addition to his political career, Haque is well known for his charitable deeds. He is the chief patron of Haque Foundation, a charity that aims to support the vulnerable, indigent community of Sylhet. Haque Foundation works closely with local government and runs community clinics, providing specialist treatment every week in different parts of Sylhet.[6] The Foundation also provides sight-restoring operations to eliminate cataract blindness.[7]
Personal life
