Khaleda Zia’s political journey was quite long

Khaleda Zia’s political journey has been more than 4 decades long, in which she touched the heights of success and also faced many difficult situations. While taking charge of BNP, he held the reins of power in the country, but allegations of corruption also had a deep impact on his image. His entry into public life was completely coincidental. She entered politics at the age of just 35 after the assassination of her husband, President Ziaur Rahman, in a failed military coup on May 30, 1981, and nearly a decade later became the first woman Prime Minister of Bangladesh. His move into politics was not part of any pre-planned strategy, but circumstances brought him to this path.
