DHAKA, Dec 2, 2025 (BSS) - Foreign Affairs Adviser Md Touhid Hossain today said the government will take necessary steps to send BNP Chairperson and former prime minister Khaleda Zia abroad for treatment if her family or party formally decides on the matter.

"If they decide, the government will take required measures," he told reporters, responding questions from journalists at the Foreign Ministry here. 

He added any decision regarding Khaleda Zia's medical treatment abroad would depend on her family or party.

The adviser also said the interim government has not yet received any formal communication regarding the possible return of BNP Acting Chairman Tarique Rahman to Dhaka.
