I visited India to seek nothing but friendship: Hasina

Bangladesh Awami League president and prime minister Sheikh Hasina has said she did not go to India to seek anything.

“I went there to seek friendship. And I got that friendship,” Hasina replied when a newsman asked her what Bangladesh has got from her recent India visit.

Sheikh Hasina was briefing newsmen on the outcome of her India visit at her official Ganabhaban residence. She began speaking at 4:30pm.

The PM said nothing has happened during her India visit that can make people pessimists.

“I am satisfied with the visit. The visit is a success. It's a matter of satisfaction that India has treated Bangladesh as a sovereign state. We have got the honour of a sovereign state,” Hasina told the media briefing.

The PM was in India from 7 April to 10 April on an official visit.
