Saturday, 23 April 2022
Awami League (AL) General Secretary Obaidul Quader has left for Singapore for a routine health check-up, reports UNB.
Awami League office secretary Biplob Barua said Quader, also road transport and bridges minister, left Dhaka on a Biman Bangladesh Airlines flight around 8.30 am on Friday.
"He has gone for a routine health check-up at Mount Elizabeth Hospital. For a long time, he was unable to travel to Singapore for a follow-up checkup due to the Covid outbreak," said Biplob.
The 69-year-old AL leader has been suffering from chronic heart and lung problems for a long time. In 2019, three blockages were found in his coronary arteries.
