Shafiqul also noted that Chief Adviser Muhammad Yunus has expressed deep concern over the deteriorating health of BNP Chairperson Khaleda Zia and has sought prayers from the nation.
Earlier today, in a Facebook post, Tarique said that despite his strong desire to return to Bangladesh and be beside his critically ill mother, the decision is not entirely his to make.
"The BNP chairperson and former prime minister remains in a critical state under intensive care and the entire nation, beyond political lines, has been praying for her recovery," he added.
He also noted that the chief adviser has promised full medical support, while local and foreign doctors continue to provide the highest level of professional and sincere care.
