State Minister for Health Dr. M A Muhit conducted a surprise inspection of the South Surma Upazila Health Complex in Sylhet on March 24, 2026, through a video call from the Secretariat in Dhaka. During the call, he spoke with patients about the quality of medical services and the availability of government medicines.

The minister praised the doctors and staff after learning about their presence and the patients’ satisfaction. He emphasized that under the direction of Prime Minister Tarique Rahman, the government is working tirelessly to ensure quality healthcare for every citizen. He urged doctors to maintain a service-oriented mindset and to build public trust to help create a “Healthy Bangladesh.”

He reaffirmed the government’s commitment to providing world-class healthcare and reiterated plans to introduce a national health card for all citizens.
