The 67th birthday of Sheikh Rehana, younger daughter of Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, is today.
Born at Mitford Hospital, Dhaka on September 13, 1956, Sheikh Rehana is the third of five children of Bangabandhu and Bangamata Begum Fazilatun Nesa Mujib.
As Sheikh Rehana is now in London, there is no formal programme on the occasion of her birthday.
Sheikh Rehana married Professor Dr Shafique Ahmed Siddique and they have three children - a son and two daughters.
Their son Radwan Mujib Siddiq is working in an international organisation and a trustee of Awami League's research wing Centre for Research and Information (CRI), daughter Tulip Siddiq is a Labour Party MP of British Parliament and youngest daughter Azmina Siddiq Rupanti is working as Global Risks Analysis Editor of London-based the Control Risks.
Sheikh Rehana, known as "Chhoto Apa" to all, has inherited a simple lifestyle from her father Bangabandhu.
Thousands of people and followers through social media extended heartfelt greetings and compliments to Sheikh Rehana and wished her long and sound life on the occasion of her birthday, reports BSS.
