Ex-whip Mahbubul Alam Tara no more

Former Jatiya Sangsad whip and BNP MP Mahbubul Alam Tara died at a Singapore hospital on Monday. Tara, also the ex-president of Jatiyatabadi Krishak Dal, breathed his last around 2:40pm at the National University of Singapore, said BNP chairperson’s media wing member Shamsuddin Didar. Tara left behind two sons, two daughters, wife and a host of relatives and well-wishers to mourn his death. The former MP was taken to Singapore on May 29 as he had long been suffering from lung cancer, according to UNB.
