Her food deficit in her body is being fulfilled by injecting saline. Dr Zahid said possibility of Khaleda Zia's recovery from her severe illness through treatment is very low. Rather, her physical condition is being deteriorated day by day. There has also been protests again: Zia supporter dressed up as Khaleda Zia.
