The president spent some time at the hospital, enquired about Minu's condition, discussed his treatment with those responsible for his care, and wished him a speedy recovery, according to the press release.

Brigadier General Irteka Rahman said the minister was admitted to cabin 311 of BMU's cabin block on Thursday (22 October) with anaemia under the supervision of Professor Dr Md Shahinul Alam.
A medical board was subsequently formed to oversee his treatment.

He added that Minu's treatment was continuing, his response had been encouraging, and his condition had improved since admission.
