History [edit]
With the promise of delivering news fast and accurate, the online newspaper started its journey in 2005 as the country’s first web-based news agency. However, the opportunity to look back to the drawing board came in the form of a friendly take-over in mid-2006 with boardroom changes at Bangladesh News 24 Hours Ltd, the owning company of bdnews24.com.
Editors [edit]
Former BBC broadcaster and journalist Toufique Imrose Khalidi took over as Managing Director of the company, and the organisation remerged as bdnews24.com. He, as Chief Editor, also headed a new-look team of experienced, talented, tech-savvy, multi-tasking, high-energy staff from across the profession.
