It's time to take Quader abroad: Devi Shetty

Renowned Indian cardiologist Dr Devi Shetty on Monday examined Road Transport and Bridges Minister Obaidul Quader at Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University (BSMMU) where he was admitted with blockages in three coronary arteries yesterday.  

After examining, he said it is the appropriate time to take the ailing minister Obaidul Quader to abroad for treatment if it will be wanted.

BSMMU Vice Chancellor Professor Kanak Kanti Barua briefed reporters this afternoon informing Dr Devi Shetty's observation.

The Indian physician arrived at Shahajalal International Airport at 12:45pm. Later, he went to the BSMMU to see Obaidul Quader's condition. 

Obaidul Quader was admitted to the Critical Coronary Unit (CCU) of the hospital on Sunday morning following his breathing complications.

Later, doctors found three blockages in his coronary artery following an angiogram.
