Ershad admitted to CMH

Jatiya Party Chairman HM Ershad was admitted to Combined Military Hospital (CMH) in Dhaka yesterday as he fell sick, said party sources.

He was given blood as the haemoglobin count in his blood was found to be low, they said.

Opposition leader Rowshan Ershad, party Secretary General ABM Ruhul Amin Howlader and Environment and Forests Minister Anisul Islam Mahmud visited him.

Hours later, Khandaker Delwar Jalali, deputy press secretary to Ershad, issued a statement, saying that the party chairman was doing better.
