The 196, Gulshan Avenue is the private residence and a political office associated with Tarique Rahman, the Prime Minister of Bangladesh and chairman of Bangladesh Nationalist Party.[2][3] It is located at Gulshan Avenue, Dhaka. It has been served as the principal residence of him since 2025.[4][5]
After the death of former President Ziaur Rahman in 1981, the then government allotted this house to his wife Khaleda Zia.[6][7] This house is built on one and a half bighas of land.[8][9]
Former Prime minister Khaleda Zia's rented personal residence Feroza Bhaban was right beside this house.[3][10]
In 2025, ownership documentation of this residence was formally handed over by the government.[11] In 2026, after Tarique becomes the prime minister of Bangladesh, he stays with his family in this building.[12][13]
