11th Infantry Division (Bangladesh)

The 11th Infantry Division (১১ম পদাতিক ডিভিশন) is a formation of the Bangladesh Army based in Bogra Cantonment.

History
In February 1996, President of Bangladesh Abdur Rahman Biswas dismissed the General officer commanding the 11th Infantry Division G.H. Murshed Khan for insubordination and Brigadier General Hameedur Rehman of Bangladesh Rifles. Chief of Staff of Bangladesh Army, Lieutenant General Abu Saleh Mohammed Nasim, revolted against the order leading to the 1996 Bangladeshi coup d'état attempt. Troops from the 11th Infantry Division tried to march to Dhaka but failed due to Savar Cantonment, which remained loyal to the president, blocking Jamuna River crossing.

The 11 Infantry Division organized a cultural program with ATN Bangla in February 2014.

Major General Md Khaled Al-Mamun was appointed commander of the 11th Infantry Division on 18 August 2022.
