During her visit, Sheikh Hasina attended the G20 Summit and held a bilateral meeting with Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

On Friday PM Modi said progress in India-Bangladesh relations in the last nine years has been gladdening. He made the remarks after holding a bilateral meeting with Bangladesh PM Hasina.

"Had productive deliberations with PM Sheikh Hasina. The progress in India-Bangladesh relations in the last 9 years has been very gladdening. Our talks covered areas like connectivity, commercial linkage and more,” PM Modi posted on X on Friday.

India and Bangladesh share bonds of history, language, culture, and a multitude of other commonalities, according to the Ministry of External Affairs. The "excellent bilateral ties" between the two nations showcase an all-encompassing partnership based on sovereignty, equality, trust, and understanding that goes far beyond a strategic partnership.

The ties between India and Bangladesh have strengthened, matured and evolved as a model for bilateral relations for the entire region and beyond. In 2021, India and Bangladesh jointly commemorated the 50th anniversary of the 1971 war.

ভারতীয়রা বোধহয় বাংলাদেশের কাছে জাহাজ বিক্রয় করার পরিকল্পনা করছে। এটি সামরিক দিক থেকে বাংলাদেশকে ভারতের উপর নির্ভরশীল করে ফেলার দীর্ঘমেয়াদী পরিকল্পনার অংশ।
