Special Parliamentary Committee on Energy

The energy sector remains vulnerable to global geopolitical instability, requiring urgent implementation of strategic storage and infrastructure diversification.

Committee proposed by PM Tarique Rahman on 23 April 2026 (BSS js-session/380764, The Report, RTV) and formally constituted on 26 April 2026 under Rule 266 of the Rules of Procedure (BSS js-session/381625, TBS). The April 23 date is the PM's floor proposal; April 26 is the formal parliamentary formation -- both verified from 2+ sources. All 10 member names cross-checked across BSS js-session/380764, js-session/380861, js-session/381625, TBS, and UNB; ABM Ashraf Uddin Nizan (Laxmipur-4) and Miah Nuruddin Ahmad Apu (Shariatpur-3) are the two Whips from the government bench (UNB; BSS national/383885). DISCREPANCY NOTE: The task brief named 'Sayeed Apu Bhuiyan' as whip -- no primary source uses this name; the whips identified are Nizan and Apu (Miah Nuruddin Ahmad Apu, Shariatpur-3). 'Sumon Brahmanbaria-6' was also specified -- Brahmanbaria-6's sitting MP is Zonayed Saki of Ganosanhati Andolan per Wikipedia; no source places a 'Sumon' on this committee. 'Iqbal Hossain Mymensingh-3' was specified -- the Mymensingh-3 MP is M. Iqbal Hossain (BNP, Disaster Management portfolio per Daily Star cabinet list) with no source placing him on this energy committee; the energy committee chairman is Iqbal Hassan Mahmood (distinct person, Energy Minister). These three names were not added to the record as they could not be verified against any primary source. Adani contract review: the NRC (a separate executive-branch body, not this committee) found corruption and recommended arbitration; the Energy Minister briefed Parliament on April 2. LNG procurement concerns documented by IEEFA. This committee's own mandate as stated in founding resolution is the Middle East energy shock; its deliberations on Adani/LNG are inferred from the broader parliamentary energy agenda, not from a published committee resolution.
