DMP issues parking rules for Khaleda's homecoming

BNP Chairperson Khaleda Zia is scheduled to return home on Tuesday, with an air ambulance carrying her expected to land at Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport at 10:30am.

Thereafter she is expected to receive a grand welcome from party leaders and activists upon exiting the airport.

According to party sources, supporters will stand along the road from Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport to Gulshan to greet the former Prime Minister.
