Provenance & notes
Leadership uses 'chairman' (recorded in current_president). Kamran T Rahman re-elected chairman in the April 2025 election for the 2025-2026 and 2026-2027 terms; exact election day not specified so president_since recorded as 2025-04. founded_year 1947 is BTA's own claim ('representing the interest of the owners and professional planters since 1947'); the body traces to the post-1947-partition split of Sylhet gardens from the Surmah Valley Branch of the Indian Tea Association. member_count 166 is the tea-estate count BTA's overview page cites as the estates it represents (an earlier figure of 146 also appears); treat as estates represented rather than dues-paying members.
