BNP has postponed its previously announced nationwide programme titled "Bijoyer Mashe Bijoy Mashal Road Show", marking Victory Day.

The decision was made in light of BNP Chairperson Khaleda Zia's illness, Senior Joint Secretary General Ruhul Kabir Rizvi said at a press conference at the party's central office in Nayapaltan yesterday.

Earlier on Saturday evening, BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir announced the party's month-long programmes for the Month of Victory.

The programmes included a nationwide Victory Torch Roadshow, a grand rally on December 16 at Manik Mia Avenue, and a series of discussions and events scheduled from December 1 to 16.

Since her return from London on May 6, Khaleda has been undergoing regular check-ups.

The former prime minister was admitted to Evercare Hospital on November 23 on the advice of her medical board after being diagnosed with infections in her heart and lungs.

She is also suffering from pneumonia and is currently receiving treatment in the Evercare Hospital's Coronary Care Unit.

Khaleda, 80, has long been battling multiple health complications, including liver cirrhosis and kidney issues. She has a permanent pacemaker and has previously undergone stent placement for her heart.
