The 10th government of Turkey (11 November 1938 â 25 January 1939) was a short-term government in the history of Turkey. It is also called Second Bayar government.
Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, the president and the founder of modern Turkey, died on 10 November. ðsmet ðnönü was elected as the new president, and consequently the 9th government of Turkey (First Bayar government) resigned. ðnönü appointed Celal Bayar of the Republican People's Party (CHP) for the second time. The Second Bayar government was similar to the First Bayar government, but Interior Minister à Âükrü Kaya and Foreign Minister Tevfik Rüà Âtü Aras of the previous government were left out of the cabinet, replaced by Refik Saydam and à Âükrü SaracoÃÂlu, respectively, both of whom would be the future prime ministers.
In the list below, the cabinet members who served only a part of the cabinet's lifespan are shown in the column "Notes".
Celal Bayar surprisingly resigned on 25 January 1939 with the pretext of the upcoming general elections to be held on 26 March.
