“People of the two neighbouring countries are enjoying the benefits of the friendly relation in different fields, including communication, healthcare and tourism,” he said.
The minister was addressing the preparatory meeting for the upcoming ‘Bangladesh-India Cultural Meet, Rajshahi-2022’ at Green Plaza of Rajshahi City Corporation on Monday as chief guest.
The international cultural meet is scheduled to be held from February 25 to 27 in Rajshahi and Natore districts to mark the birth centenary of Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman and Golden Jubilee of India-Bangladesh Relations.
Around 200 people, including 40 delegations with four ministers from India, are likely to participate in the great event.
With Rajshahi Mayor AHM Khairuzzaman Liton, the meeting was addressed, among others by State Minister for Foreign Affairs Shahriar Alam and State Minister for ICT Zunaid Ahmed Palak.
Large number of members of parliament and front ranking leaders of Bangladesh Awami League from all the eight districts in Rajshahi division joined the meeting.
Food Minister Sadhan Chandra Majumder said the two neighbouring countries, Bangladesh and India, maintain close and cordial relations on various bilateral fields and issues.
Bangladesh and India, as the closest neighbours, will continue to work together to establish a secure South Asia for the benefit of all people.
He said the relationship has its genesis in the War of Liberation in 1971 and Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman maintained excellent relations with the Indian leadership.
“We recall with deep gratitude the contribution of the government of India for standing firmly by us in our most difficult time,” he said.
