Liberation War Affairs Minister AKM Mozammel Haque expressed gratitude towards India and Russia.
He said the kind of assistance provided by Indira Gandhi, the people of India and the allied forces during Bangladesh’s War of Independence is rare in the history of the world.

“The ties among India, Russia and Bangladesh forged in blood will never be undone,” he said.
