Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi today said New Delhi has always attached “highest priority” to its relationship with Dhaka and it does not support any particular party in Bangladesh.
He made the remark at a bilateral meeting with Bangladesh Chief Adviser Professor Muhammad Yunus on the sidelines of the BIMSTEC summit in Bangkok.
Modi said the history of the two neighbours is intricately linked, and it goes back to the birth of Bangladesh.
He said India would always support a progressive, democratic and inclusive Bangladesh.
Claiming that India does not support any particular party in Bangladesh, Modi said: “Our relationship is people-to-people.”
India’s attachment is with a country, not with any individuals or political organisations, he said.
The Indian premier recalled the global stature of Prof Yunus. বিস্তারিত
