BNP Chairperson Khaleda Zia has returned to her Gulshan residence after receiving treatment for six days at Evercare Hospital in the capital, report agencies.
"She (Khaleda) was discharged from the hospital on Wednesday evening as per the advice of the medical board," said AZM Zahid Hossain, Khaleda's personal physician and a BNP standing committee member.
He said the BNP chief underwent various medical tests during her stay in the hospital since early Thursday.
"The board has made the decision after reviewing her health and the latest medical reports," Zahid said.
He said the BNP chairperson will now be provided with treatment at home under the supervision of her doctors.
Khaleda left the hospital at 6:25 pm and reached home around 7:05pm, said BNP media cell member Sayrul Kabir Khan.
Khaleda Zia was admitted to the hospital in the early hours of Thursday as her medical board recommended several tests.
Earlier, on August 21, Khaleda Zia returned home after a 45-day treatment at Evercare Hospital.
A group of specialist doctors, led by Prof Shahabuddin Talukder, successfully installed a pacemaker in Khaleda Zia's chest on June 23.
Khaleda has long been battling various ailments, including liver cirrhosis, arthritis, diabetes, and issues related to her kidney, lung, heart, and eyes.
The BNP chief's doctors have been recommending sending her abroad since she was diagnosed with liver cirrhosis in November 2021.
