The Adviser to the Prime Minister of Bangladesh (বাংলাদেশের প্রধানমন্ত্রীর উপদেষ্টা) is a senior advisory position within the Government of Bangladesh. Appointed directly by the Prime Minister, these advisers provide specialized counsel on policy matters, oversee specific ministries or departments, and hold ranks equivalent to cabinet ministers or state ministers.
