DHAKA: Bangladesh Nationalist Party's (BNP) acting chairman Tarique Rahman on Saturday said that he strongly wishes to return to the country to be with his critically ill mother and party chief Khaleda Zia, but prevailing political circumstances prevent him from doing so.
Rahman took to his social media platform, urging people to keep praying for the recovery of his ailing mother and expressed hope that when the political climate permits, his long wait to return to Bangladesh will finally end.
Meanwhile, local media on Saturday reported that Khaleda Zia's health condition has further deteriorated, with the BNP chief remaining under close observation in the Coronary Care Unit (CCU) at Evercare Hospital in Dhaka.
