Hawa Bhaban, also rendered as Hawa Bhavan, or Hawa Bhawan, was the political office of the chairperson of the Bangladesh Nationalist Party, and monitored party affairs on the chair's behalf. It was viewed as an "alternate power house" in Bangladesh when BNP was in power from 2001 to 2006. It became controversial during the 2006–2008 Bangladeshi political crisis when the party joint secretary was Tarique Rahman, son and heir apparent of the chairperson of the Bangladesh Nationalist Party Khaleda Zia. This resulted in a parallel government being administered from Hawa Bhaban. The Hawa Bhaban was used to plot the 2004 Dhaka grenade attack in an attempt to kill Sheikh Hasina, former Prime Minister and chairperson of the Awami League. Hawa Bhaban was a symbol of kleptocracy in Bangladesh during the rule of the Bangladesh Nationalist Party—led coalition government from 2001 to 2006. Businessman Giasuddin Al Mamun, convicted in a corruption case and friend of Tarique Rahman, was connected to the Hawa Bhaban. Tarique Rahman would be called the 'prince' of Hawa Bhaban. Harris Chowdhury had access to both Hawa Bhaban and as political secretary of Prime Minister Khaleda Zia to the Prime Minister's Office. Accused in the 2004 arms and ammunition haul in Chittagong claimed Hawa Bhaban was connected to the incident during trial.
