Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina left Beijing for Dhaka on Wednesday night, wrapping up her three-day bilateral visit to China at the invitation of her Chinese counterpart Li Qiang.
A special flight of the Biman Bangladesh Airlines, carrying the Prime Minister and her entourage members, departed the Beijing Capital International Airport for home at 10:05 pm (local time).
The flight is scheduled to land at the Shahjalal International Airport at 1:00 am (Bangladesh time).
The Premier was earlier scheduled to leave Beijing for Dhaka on Thursday morning.
But the Prime Minister left Beijing a few hours earlier to attend her ailing daughter Saima Wazed, Foreign Minister Dr Hasan Mahmud said, in reply to a question about speculations over the Premier's early departure from Beijing, at a press briefing, BSS reports.
He said Saima Wazed was supposed to visit Beijing, but she had not been able to do so as she is very ill.
