Chief Adviser Professor Muhammad Yunus asked advisers to fast-track the construction of Ganabhaban as a museum for the July-August mass uprising.
He gave the instructions while visiting Ganabhaban where ousted prime minister Sheikh Hasina lived during the past 15 years, which became a symbol of repression and her brutal rule.
"The museum should preserve the memories of her misrule and the anger people expressed when they ousted her from power," Professor Muhammad Yunus said as he inspected the ruins.
Hundreds of thousands of protesters stormed the Ganabhaban on August 5, moments after Hasina fled Bangladesh and took refuge in India.
Protesters marked their anger in the Ganabhaban walls and rooms by drawing graffiti and writing protest notes such as Khuni Hasina (killer Hasina).
The chief adviser said a replica of the Aynaghar (Mirror House) where Hasina's notorious security agencies secretly detained hundreds of dissidents and opposition activists should also be built at the museum at Ganabhaban.
The Aynaghar should remind visitors of the tortures suffered by the secret prisoners, he said.
Advisers Adilur Rahman Khan, Nahid Islam, and Asif Mahmud accompanied the chief adviser during the visit.
Professor Yunus told the advisers to consult with experts on the museum.
He told them to finalise proposals for the museum by December this year.
Nahid Islam, a student leader turned adviser, said the misdeeds of the Hasina regime, starting in 2009, will be meticulously preserved at the museum.
He said they were consulting with experts from other countries to find out how they constructed memorials commemorating their revolutions and uprisings.
Mahfuj Alam, special assistant of the chief adviser, was also present during the visit.
