UNB, Dhaka

The BNP will observe the birthday of its Chairperson and former prime minister Khaleda Zia today in a low-key manner with only prayer programmes.

The party’s Senior Joint Secretary General Ruhul Kabir Rizvi said they would pray for their leader’s good health and speedy recovery through doa and milad mahfils, instead of celebrating with cake-cutting or other events.

He said the doa and milad mahfils will be held at BNP offices across the country, including the headquarters in Dhaka, and in mosques after Juma prayers, seeking Khaleda’s good health and long life, as well as eternal peace for those martyred during the 1971 Liberation War, the 1990 democratic movement, and the 2024 mass uprising.
