Leader of the Opposition in Parliament Raushan Ershad has been admitted to the Combined Military Hospital (CMH) in Dhaka after she fell ill.
Raushan’s Assistant Private Secretary Mamun Hasan said the 77-year-old opposition leader was taken to the CMH at around 9pm on Thursday, due to dehydration and acidity problems.
“She’s now doing well, and doctors said her condition is stable,” Mamun told UNB on Friday afternoon.
Before the admission to the CMH, he said Raushan, the widow of former military ruler HM Ershad and the senior vice chairman of Jatiya Party (JaPa), underwent a Covid-19 test and the report came out to be negative.
Mamun said Raushan underwent some other necessary tests at the CMH as well.
He said Raushan, also the chief patron of Jatiya Party, is likely to be discharged from the hospital on Saturday or Sunday.
