BNP Standing Committee member and Prime Minister’s Adviser Mirza Abbas has said doctors should not become victims of politics.

“Doctors are doctors, not members of any political party. We should let them remain doctors and not drag them into politics,” he said.

He made the remarks at a seminar at Bangladesh Medical University in Shahbagh on Saturday.

Abbas also stressed the need to build public confidence in the country’s healthcare system, saying Bangladesh has many skilled doctors.
