== History == Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, after switching from presidency to premiership following the independence of Bangladesh and founding of a parliamentary government, used to have his office at what was known as the "President's House" (later more commonly "Sugandha Bhaban" and officially "State Guest House Sugandha"), which he referred to as the "Ganabhaban", meaning "People's House", and now serves as the Foreign Service Academy office since 1996, located on Baily Road. Due to inadequate office space, following the 1973 general election, he had the Ganabhaban built at Sher-e-Bangla Nagar as his official residence and secretariat, though he never resided there. After its completion the following year, he would work there until 1975 and it would subsequently be used as a court-martial by the succeeding martial law administrations. 300px|thumb|A view from inside the Ganabhaban during an official meeting in 2023
