Khaleda Zia greets Modi

BNP Chairperson Begum Khaleda Zia greeted Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi as the BJP-led alliance is on its course for an absolute majority in the Indian national election.
Khaleda Zia’s greetings message was sent to Modi through Indian High Commissioner in Dhaka Pankaj Saran.
Partial counts showed Modi’s Hindu nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and its allies leading in 309 seats out of 543 being contested. The ruling Congress party alliance was ahead in just 72.
Once in power, many BNP leaders hope, the BJP government will help ameliorate relations with BNP unlike the Indian National Congress.
