\"\"Dhaka:<\/strong> Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina on Saturday expressed her confidence that Bangladesh\u2019s relations with Sri Lanka would grow further through cooperation in multiple sectors.<\/p>\n

She said this in a video message at a virtual programme to mark the golden jubilee of the diplomatic ties between Bangladesh and Sri Lanka.<\/p>\n

On this day in 1972 Sri Lanka recognised Bangladesh as a sovereign and independent country.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe early recognition by Sri Lanka provided the newly emerging country with much valued support,\u201d the prime minister said.<\/p>\n

She said that the last fifty years have provided a solid foundation for the partnership of the two neighbouring South Asian countries.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am confident that we will be working together for building a prosperous and peaceful region in next fifty years and beyond,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

Hasina said that indomitable people of Bangladesh has achieved significant progress in socio-economic development in last 13 years, being imbued with the spirit of the country\u2019s glorious War of Liberation and the dream of the Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe deeply value Sri Lanka\u2019s partnership in our incredible journey towards attainment of socio-economic emancipation,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

In this connection, she said that she is very happy that Sri Lanka remained as a trusted friend and partner of Bangladesh in the common endeavour of the two countries.<\/p>\n

She recalled Sri Lankan Prime Minister Mahinda Rajapaksa\u2019s visit to Dhaka in March last year to join the celebration of the Birth Centenary of Bangabandhu and the Golden Jubilee of Bangladesh\u2019s independence.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
