As the outgoing government hands over their power, the caretaker government comes into place. 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. The head of the government, who is called the Chief Adviser, is selected by the President, and the Chief Adviser selects the other advisers. The administration is generally distributed between the advisers. The Chief Adviser and the other advisers are committed for their activities to the President.
A caretaker government was first introduced in 1990 when three party alliances jointly made a demand to appeal for it. In 2006, the system was activated for the fourth time. It was again activated on 11 January 2007, and the newly appointed government has been running the nation since. The current Chief Adviser is Fakhruddin Ahmed, conjoint with ten other Advisers.
