Zia Ahmed, a retired major general from the Bangladesh army's Signals Corps, was reappointed on Monday as chairman of the Bangladesh Telecom Regulatory Commission for another year.
Ahmed was made BTRC chief in February 2009 and completed his three-year tenure on Thursday.
An official announcement to this effect was made on Monday after prime minister Sheikh Hasina gave her formal clearance the day before.
A highly-placed PMO source said the other names that had come up for consideration included current vice chairman Giasuddin Ahmed, a retired civil servant.
Zia Ahmed was sent into retirement during the BNP-Jamaat regime as a brigadier general but got promoted to major general with retrospective effect after the Awami League government returned to power in 2009.
