BNP chairperson Begum Khaleda Zia will return home 81 days after she was admitted to hospital.
Khaleda Zia will return to her Gulshan residence Firoja around 4pm Tuesday from the Evercare Hospital in the capital, the BNP chairperson’s press wing member Shayrul Kabir Khan said.
Khaleda, a 76-year-old former prime minister, has been receiving treatment at Evercare Hospital for various health complications since November 13.
Her medical board members said Khaleda immediately needs to go abroad for better treatment as she was diagnosed with liver cirrhosis.
On behalf of her family, Khaleda's younger brother, Shamim Iskander, submitted an application to the Home Ministry on November 11 urging the government to allow her to go abroad for better treatment.
The government still did not dispose of the application while the ministers are saying the BNP chief has no scope to go abroad until she files a fresh application returning to jail.
