The Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) has announced a new program calling for nationwide prayers for the recovery of its chairperson and former Prime Minister Khaleda Zia, who remains in critical condition at Evercare Hospital in Dhaka. According to a press release signed by senior joint secretary general Ruhul Kabir Rizvi, prayers will be held after Friday’s Juma prayers in mosques across the country, while followers of other faiths are urged to pray in their respective places of worship. Meanwhile, preparations are underway to transfer Khaleda Zia to London for advanced medical treatment, with a Qatar-sent air ambulance expected to depart at midnight. She will be accompanied by 14 people, including seven doctors, family members, and aides. Khaleda Zia has been hospitalized since November 23 and has spent the past eight days in the hospital’s coronary care unit under close observation. Her condition remains critical but stable, with ongoing dialysis and mechanical ventilation support.
