Today is the 74th birthday of BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir. He was born on January 26, 1948 in Thakurgaon.
The BNP leader’s birthday was marked by wishes from family members and party leaders and activists.
Fakhrul woke up in the morning with his elder daughter Mirza Shamaruh wising him ‘happy birthday’ followed by his sister Anarkali Farhad Banu Nagina Amin, the wife of ex-Army Chief Lt Gen (retd) Mahbubur Rahman.
The BNP leader said there was no formal programme to celebrate the birthday, but his relatives, friends, and party leader and activists from home and abroad wished him on the occasion.
“I usually don’t celebrate my birthday. I woke up in the morning with the phone call of my elder daughter from Australia and she wished me. Then my sister, younger daughter also phoned me saying, ‘Happy birthday,” he said.
Fakhrul said though he recovered from Covid after being tested positive for the virus on January 10, he is still very week.
