The second Khaleda ministry was the government of Bangladesh during the 6th legislative sessions of the Jatiya Sangsad (Parliament) following the February 1996 general election, boycotted by most of the opposition parties. The cabinet took oath in a hurry on 19 March 1996 amid hartals and protests from the opposition parties for a new election under a caretaker government.
The cabinet passed the Constitutional Amendment Bill in the sitting parliament to establish a neutral caretaker government system in Bangladesh. The second Khaleda ministry was short-lived; lasting only 12 days, the ministry transferred power to the caretaker government led by Muhammad Habibur Rahman on 30 March 1996 and an election was scheduled for June 1996.
