Khaleda Zia to return home by air ambulance 

BNP chairperson and former Prime Minister Begum Khaleda Zia will return Dhaka by an air ambulance provided by the Emir of Qatar, not by a Bangladeshi plane.

She will arrive at Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport in Dhaka from London on May 5.

BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir said this while addressing a press conference after a joint meeting at the BNP Chairperson's political office in Gulshan on Saturday evening.

Khaleda Zia will be accompanied by her two daughters-in-law -- Dr. Zubaida Rahman and Shamila Rahman.

Mirza Fakhrul said Khaleda Zia has undergone treatment in London for four months. “By the grace of Allah, Madam is now feeling much better than before. That's why she has now decided to return the country,” he said.

Mirza Fakhrul said, “Naturally, there is emotion in us. Every patriotic person is very excited that their beloved leader will return the country. It is our moral duty to welcome her. Not only BNP, but the people of the whole country are ready to welcome her.”
