Although the Awami League government has succeeded in foiling the attempt of the BNP-Jamaat nexus to capture power by unseating Sheikh Hasina, the coming days may bear much harder challenges as BNP-Jamaat is adamantly looking to return to power.
The historical ties between Bangladesh and India are deeply rooted, with India playing a pivotal role in Bangladesh's liberation war in 1971. However, it is under the leadership of Modi and Hasina that these ties have been significantly strengthened.
Hasina added that she was offered a hassle-free re-election in the January 7 polls if she allowed a foreign country to build an airbase inside Bangladeshi territory.
Bangladesh PM Sheikh Hasina came down hard against BNP leaders, asking them to burn their wives' Indian sarees first before running 'Boycott India' campaign.
One of the key highlights of Sheikh Hasina's political career has been her commitment to regional cooperation and stability. Under her leadership, Bangladesh has fostered strong ties with India.
