Hasina one of the emerging leaders of South Asia

BJP leader tells AL council
DIPLOMATIC CORRESPONDENT

Indian ruling party Bharatiya Janata party (BJP) has been full of praise for Awami League President and Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina for her resolve not to allow Bangladeshi territory to be used by the terrorists. “India is especially thankful to your country as you have very recently but very unequivocally and boldly made it clear that your government will not allow the land of Bangladesh to be used by perpetrators of terrorist activities of any kind,” BJP national vice president Dr Vinay Sahasrabuddhe said while addressing the 20th Triennial Conference of Bangladesh Awami League in the capital yesterday. “Your resolve is very reassuring for all those who have joined hands against terror,” he added. “Besides our struggle against terror, there are other two important things that bind us together. Firstly, our common democratic traditions. Both of us have a glorious history of Spiritual Democracy and our Political Democracy also emanates from these traditions,” the BJP leader said.
Secondly, he said, “In both the countries, ruling dispensations are trying to work for Politics of Performance. Both our countries desire a democracy that delivers. Democracy of development is again our shared aspiration.”
Describing Hasina as ‘a true Jana Netri’ the BJP leader said, “Looking at the sea of humanity gathered over here, I can really say that Jana Netri is a befitting description for you.” And, he added, “I must tell all of you that when we have a leader of her kind of exceptional qualities, her leadership doesn’t remain confined to one country. She is one of the emerging leaders of South Asia as well.”  Recalling his experience of Bangladesh’s War of Independence, Sahasrabuddhe said Bangbandhu Shekh Mujubar Rehman is not a source of inspiration just for the people of Bangladesh, but he was and continues to be a source of inspiration for all those who stand for the values of freedom, liberty and justice. “It would not be an exaggeration to say that in this subcontinent, Shekh Mujibur Rehman will be remembered as the first leader of the later half of last century who relentlessly fought against the tyranny of terrorism. When the challenge of terrorism is staring at us, he will continue to inspire all those fighting against this menace,” he added. The BJP Vice President said Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi attaches great importance to the relations between Dhaka and New Delhi and he has resolutely worked to find out lasting and mutually beneficial solutions for several vexed issues between the two countries.
