M. A. N. Siddique is a former officer of the Bangladesh Civil Service who served as the first Managing Director of Dhaka Mass Transit Company Limited.
M. A. N. Siddique was born on 13 October 1957 in Narsingdi Thana, Narayanganj Subdivision, Dacca District, then Pakistani province of East Pakistan.
[6] On 26 October of the same year, Siddique joined Dhaka Mass Transit Company Limited (DMTCL) as the managing director.
However, after joining the post, Siddique legitimized his appointment by amending the articles of association to specify a retired secretary as the qualification for the managing director.
[10] According to the Daily Khaborer Kagoj, Siddique had a good relationship with former prime minister Sheikh Hasina and would contact her directly whenever necessary, bypassing senior officials.
[14] In addition, according to the newspaper, information obtained from DMTCL sources indicates that Siddique was indirectly involved in the strike of DMTCL employees over the issue of discriminatory salary structure at a time when the Dhaka Metro Rail, which was closed due to an attack by miscreants on 19 July 2024, was likely to be launched after the resignation of Sheikh Hasina, which led to uncertainty about the launch of the metro rail.
