History
Before 1990, it was the official residence of the Vice-President of Bangladesh.
In 2009 after Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina was elected, she moved to Jamuna State Guest House as the residence officially allotted to her as part of the Father of the Nation's Family Members Security Act, 2009, the Ganabhaban, was being renovated.[4] She moved from her private residence to the guest house on the advice of intelligence agencies who were concerned over her security.[5]
Following the ousting of Sheikh Hasina in the non-cooperation movement on 5 August, Muhammad Yunus was appointed as the Chief Advisor of the interim government and resided at the Jamuna State Guest House. This decision was made as Gonobhaban was vandalized by protesters following Sheikh Hasina's departure.[6]
