Road Transport and Bridges Minister Obaidul Quader will be released from Singapore’s Mount Elizabeth Hospital on Friday (Apr 5) afternoon.
“The health condition of the minister is better now. He will be released from the Singapore hospital at 3pm local time (1pm Bangladesh time),” Public Relations Officer of the ministry Abu Naser Khan told BSS.
“He’ll then be taken to a rented house where he’ll receive necessary medical care,” he added.
Quader, who also serves as the ruling Awami League’s general secretary was initially admitted to Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University (BSMMU) on Mar 3 after suffering a cardiac arrest.
He was airlifted to Singapore on Mar 4 and underwent a bypass surgery on Mar 20.
On Mar 26, he was moved to a cabin from the intensive care unit of the hospital after his condition improved.
