Prime Minister Tarek Rahman attended the 81st founding anniversary celebration of Dhaka Medical College, known as DMC Day 2026, held on July 11, 2026. After inaugurating the event by releasing doves and balloons at Shaheed Milon Square, he participated in a discussion titled “Thoughts of DMCians on Modernizing Bangladesh’s Health System” at the college auditorium. During the session, he exchanged views with doctors, officials, and students, answering questions and listening to their suggestions.

When asked about his vision for the health sector, the Prime Minister humorously pointed to his wife, Dr. Zubaida Rahman, saying, “I don’t have health in my head, she does,” prompting laughter across the auditorium. The participant then remarked that if Dr. Rahman took initiatives in this area, it would make them even prouder.

Health and Family Welfare Minister Sardar Sakhawat Hossain Bakul, State Minister Dr. M A Muhith, Health Services Secretary Kamruzzaman Chowdhury, and the Prime Minister’s Information Adviser Dr. Zahed Ur Rahman were also present at the event.
