The nation is engulfed in profound grief following the passing of former Prime Minister and Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) Chairperson, Begum Khaleda Zia. Citizens from all walks of life—politicians, business leaders, and ordinary people—have expressed their sorrow at the loss of a towering political figure. Among the many tributes, eminent singer and BNP adviser Baby Naznin offered a heartfelt message commemorating Begum Khaleda Zia’s life and contributions.

In her statement, Baby Naznin said, “The void left by a great leader like Begum Khaleda Zia will be felt by the people of Bangladesh forever. The suffering and injustice she endured due to political vindictiveness will, I believe, be rectified by Almighty Allah. Her sacrifices for the nation will remain an immortal part of Bangladesh’s political history.”

She continued, “The news of Begum Zia’s passing has left the entire country speechless. May Almighty Allah grant her eternal peace and bestow patience upon the Zia family to bear this profound grief.”

Baby Naznin has herself been actively involved in political life. Alongside her celebrated musical career, she has maintained close ties with the BNP. Having witnessed Begum Khaleda Zia’s leadership firsthand, she praised both her humanitarian qualities and her political acumen.

“Begum Zia departs on her final journey carrying the prayers of the people and leaving blessings for the nation, which will serve as a democratic force shaping the future of Bangladesh. Acting BNP Chairman Tarique Rahman will harness that strength to lead the country towards a new and prosperous Bangladesh,” Baby Naznin added.
