BNP Standing Committee member and political adviser to the Prime Minister Mirza Abbas has been moved from the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) to a cabin at Singapore General Hospital.

The transition follows 19 days of critical observation following complex brain surgery.

BNP Health Affairs Secretary Dr. Rafiqul Islam confirmed the development on Friday, stating that Abbas’s condition is showing gradual improvement.

"I spoke with his wife, Afroza Abbas, this morning. He has been moved to a cabin today (Friday), where doctors will begin advanced physiotherapy as part of his post-surgical care," Dr. Islam noted.

Despite the move, he emphasized that the veteran politician remains under close medical supervision.

The health crisis began on March 11, when Mirza Abbas fell unconscious during Iftar and was rushed to Evercare Hospital in Dhaka.

Following an emergency evaluation by a specialized medical board of neurologists, he underwent urgent brain surgery. Due to the complexity of his condition, he was flown to Singapore via air ambulance on March 15 for specialized treatment.

While the shift to a cabin marks a positive milestone, medical teams in Singapore have indicated that his recovery process will be lengthy and requires continued specialized intervention.
