Quader visits ailing Ershad at CMH

Road Transport and Bridges Minister Obaidul Quader visited ailing Jatiya Party Chairman HM Ershad at the Combined Military Hospital (CMH) in Dhaka on Monday morning.

Quader, also the General Secretary of Awami League, visited Ershad at the Intensive Care Unit at 10:30 am.

Ershad’s brother GM Quader, also the party’s acting chairman, secretary general Moshiur Rahman Ranga and other leaders were present.

Ershad was admitted to CMH due to old-age complications on Wednesday. 

The JaPa chief has been suffering from serious ailments for the last nine months. He also went to a Singapore hospital after the national election.

Ershad attended only one sitting of the maiden session of the 11th parliament formed through the December 30 election. He didn’t attend the second session of the parliament due to serious physical ailments.

He last appeared at a public gathering at an Iftar Mahfil programme at Westin Dhaka.
