Ruhul Haque, Honourable  Ex-Minister, Health and Family Welfare, The government of People’s Republic of Bangladesh, Prof. Abdus Samad Sheikh, Prof. A.K.M. Eshaque, Prof. M.A. Hannan. In August 2002, Prof. R .R Kairy took charge of the Yellow unit.  In 2007, there was a little bit change in unit reformation that caused an increase in number of units I.e previous  9 unist were reformed into 12 units.

Hence Yellow unit was subdivided into Yellow unit I and Yellow-2 unit II. Prof. RR Kairy has been continuing as the Unit chief of both Yellow unit I and II. Later on Professor Dr Golam Farque took over the charge of Yellow unit 2. Professor Dr Abdur Rob was the immediate successor of Professor  Golam Farque upon his retirement.This time the unit is run by Associate Professor Mir Hamidur Rahman after the retirement of Professor Dr. Abdur Rob.
