Mahmuda Alam Mitu, the central joint member secretary of the National Citizens Party (NCP), is undergoing treatment at a private hospital in the capital. On February 23, her physical condition suddenly deteriorated due to gynecological problems and she underwent emergency surgery. However, it is reported that complications have arisen again after the surgery.

Her husband confirmed her illness in a post on his verified Facebook ID on Saturday night, February 28th.

He said that Mitu was in a state of shock before the surgery. Severe complications arose due to excessive bleeding inside the abdomen.

He also expressed his gratitude to the blood donors. He also mentioned that it was possible to overcome the initial crisis due to the utmost efforts of the doctors and everyone’s prayers.

As news of the illness of Dr. Mahmuda Mitu, who was one of the leaders in the demolition of the historic house and museum of the Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman in Dhanmondi 32, spread on social media, there were mixed reactions.

Some members of the general public shared the photo of Dhanmondi 32’s smiling face with his hammer in hand and posted it, calling it a ‘curse’.

Meanwhile, it has been reported that some new physical complications have arisen after the surgery.

He is currently hospitalized for multiple complications, including a post-operative lung infection. He has signs of septicemia, neutrophilia, and elevated test parameters including D-dimer, liver enzymes, CRP, and WBC. He is being treated with insulin due to newly diagnosed high-grade diabetes.

Her husband said her saturation was decreasing without oxygen support.

No visitors are being allowed in his cabin at the moment due to a lung infection. Although there were plans to take him to the ICU for two days, it was not necessary at this time due to the intensive care of the doctors.

However, he is not completely out of danger yet. Doctors estimate that it may take another four to five days to recover.

Mitu’s husband has asked the countrymen to pray for her.
