Bangladesh’s ruling party, the Bangladesh Awami League led by former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, congratulated Suvendu Adhikari after he took oath as West Bengal’s first BJP Chief Minister. The message praised the BJP’s electoral victory and wished prosperity for West Bengal and India. The development is being viewed as a significant diplomatic gesture amid changing political dynamics in eastern India. Adhikari’s swearing-in marks the end of the Trinamool Congress’s 15-year rule in the state. Political observers believe the outreach from Bangladesh could influence future regional cooperation and India-Bangladesh relations, especially concerning border and trade issues. (PC: X)
