Bangladesh Nationalist Party secretary general Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir has been admitted to United Hospital in the capital’s Gulshan area.

The party’s press wing member Shairul Kabir Khan on Monday said that the party secretary general was admitted to the hospital Sunday morning as per doctors’ advice.


Fakhrul’s condition is now stable and the hospital’s chief consultant of cardiology, Professor NAM Momenuzzaman, is overseeing Fakhrul’s treatment, Shairul said.

Doctors at the hospital reported that Fakhrul’s sodium levels had dropped, and he was also experiencing breathing problems due to a buildup of mucus in his chest.

The ailing leader’s family has requested the party leaders, activists, and supporters to refrain from crowding the hospital.
