Khaleda’s health condition remains unchanged: Rizvi
The health condition of BNP Chairperson Begum Khaleda Zia remains unchanged, Senior Joint Secretary General Ruhul Kabir Rizvi said on Sunday.
“From the latest updates we have received today, her condition is unchanged,” he said while speaking at an urgent press conference at the party’s Nayapaltan central office.
The BNP leader also said doctors have not yet given any advice about sending her abroad.
Quoting the medical team, he said, “Her condition has not deteriorated, but we have not heard of any major improvement either.”
When asked about the return of BNP’s Acting Chairman Tarique Rahman’s possible homecoming, Rizvi said he will return “at an appropriate time. We have no update on this. When the time is right, he will come back.”
Rizvi said that Tarique Rahman is in regular contact with the doctors and is closely monitoring all matters related to Khaleda Zia’s treatment, including the possibility of taking her abroad.
On Saturday night, Khaleda Zia’s personal physician and Standing Committee member Dr AZM Zahid Hossain told reporters that she is able to receive the treatment provided by the medical team. However, her condition is not yet suitable for traveling abroad.
He said all preparations have been made to take her overseas once the medical board advises it.
Khaleda Zia has been undergoing treatment at Evercare Hospital since she was admitted on 23 November with multiple health complications, reports UNB.
