Chief Justice Syed Refaat Ahmed is scheduled to administer the oath-taking ceremony.

Earlier, on Thursday, 21 November, the Cabinet Division issued an official gazette confirming the appointment of AMM Nasir Uddin as the chief election commissioner.

A separate gazette notification detailed the appointments of the four election commissioners.

The newly appointed election commissioners are:
