Gayeshwar Chandra Roy
Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) senior leader Gayeshwar Chandra Roy on Sunday said Sheikh Hasina government’s relations with India have turned sour after the procurement of submarines from China by Bangladesh.
“Hasina has procured submarines from China and signed various deals with it. India has wanted to know against whom the submarines will be used. That’s why you (Hasina) have got your relations with them (India) soured. That means India doesn’t trust you,” he said.
Gayeshwar, a BNP standing committee member, came up with the remark while speaking at a discussion arranged by Bangladesh National Awami Party in Photojournalists’ Association’s auditorium in the city, marking Moshiur Rahman Jadu Mia’s 38th death anniversary.
Earlier in the day, the prime minister formally inaugurated the commissioning of two modern submarines— BNS Nabajatra and BNS Joyjatra— at Chittagong Naval Base.
The two submarines, procured from China, reached Chittagong Port on 22 December. Those were handed over to Bangladesh on 14 November.
Gayeshwar came down hard on Hasina for her remarks involving Indian intelligence agency RAW and Khaleda, saying BNP has foreign friends not any master. “But you (Hasina) have foreign masters, no friends.”
The BNP leader urged the prime minister not to sign any anti-state deal with India during her upcoming visit to that country.
He said his party always wants friendly ties with India as it is the largest democratic country in the world. “But, BNP always remains aware so that the level of friendship does not turn into that a big brotherly one.”
