Road, Transport and Bridges Minister Obaidul Quader underwent a successful bypass surgery at Mount Elizabeth Hospital in Singapore on Wednesday.

Cardiothoracic surgeon Dr Sivathasan Cumaraswamy, a member of the medical board treating Quader, conducted the operation.

Information Officer of the Road Transport and Bridges Ministry Abu Naser said the surgery continued for more than five hours and Quader’s condition was stable after the operation.

Quader, also Awami League general secretary, was admitted to BSMMU on March 3 following breathing complications but tests revealed three blockages in his coronary artery.

He was flown to Singapore the next day for treatment at the Mount Elizabeth Hospital.
