Islami Andolan Bangladesh has criticized the Directorate General of Health Services for canceling the license of Ad-Din Hospital in Moghbazar following the deaths of six newborns before Eid-ul-Azha. In a statement issued on June 11, 2026, the party’s joint secretary general and spokesperson, Maulana Gazi Ataur Rahman, said that while a proper investigation and punishment for those found negligent are necessary, revoking the hospital’s license is neither fair nor desirable.

Rahman emphasized that Ad-Din Hospital has been providing affordable, quality healthcare since 2000, serving around 20 million patients and performing over 150,000 surgeries. He noted that the hospital has maintained a strong record of service to low-income communities, with no major accidents in 26 years. The hospital has also offered to pay significant compensation to the affected families.

The statement urged the health authorities to withdraw the license cancellation decision, describing the recent incident as an unfortunate accident that should not overshadow the hospital’s long-standing contributions to public healthcare.
