BNP Chairperson Khaleda Zia will leave for London tomorrow for eye treatment.
BNP Standing Committee Member Nazrul Islam Khan made the disclosure
last night after the party chief held a 90-minute long meeting with
senior party leaders at her Gulshan office in Dhaka.
She is scheduled to board on an Emirates flight at 9:30pm at Hazrat
Shahjalal International Airport tomorrow, Sayrul Kabir Khan, a staff of
BNP chairperson’s media wing told The Daily Star.
She will be accompanied by her adviser Amir Khasru Mahmud Chowdhury,
Personal Secretary Abdus Sattar and a domestic help, party insiders
said.
The visit would be a significant one, as Khaleda is expected to
discuss crucial political issues with her elder son and party Senior
Vice-Chairman Tarique Rahman, who has been staying in London since 2008,
they added.
During the visit, Khaleda would take Tarique's opinion on the
formation of party's standing committee, executive body and committees
of different associate organisations, and then make the final decision,
according to BNP sources.
They said she would also discuss with him the issue of amending the
party charter to create a new body for pro-BNP intellectuals.
