জিয়াউর রহমানের রেখে যাওয়া ভিত্তির ধারাবাহিকতায় বিভিন্ন খাতে উন্নয়নে গুরুত্ব দিচ্ছেন তারেক রহমান: স্বাস্থ্যমন্ত্রী

Health and Family Welfare Minister Sardar Md. Sakhawat Hossain stated that the foundation of honesty and integrity laid by BNP founder Ziaur Rahman is being followed by Tarique Rahman in developing various sectors, including healthcare. Speaking at a discussion event organized by the Doctors Association of Bangladesh (DAB) on the occasion of Ziaur Rahman's 45th death anniversary, the minister highlighted the expansion of hospital capacities from 31 to 50 and now to 101 beds as a continuation of Ziaur Rahman's initiatives. Hossain also emphasized Ziaur Rahman's crucial role in initiating the Liberation War, suggesting that his declaration of independence spurred the nation into action when others had fled. He further noted Ziaur Rahman's leadership in the war as commander of Z Force and his subsequent role in re-establishing democracy after 1975.

The statement highlights the perceived legacy of Ziaur Rahman in national development and political history, particularly within the context of the Bangladesh Nationalist Party's narrative.
