Small incidents dont affect India-Bangladesh ties ICCR DG

Following the series of incidents of communal violence against Hindu minority in Bangladesh, Director General of Indian Council for Cultural Relations (ICCR) Dinesh K Patnaik said that small incidents do not make differences between India and Bangladesh relations. Speaking to ANI, Patnaik said, "Our diplomatic relations are very strong. Small incidents do not make a difference in a larger picture of diplomatic relations between two countries and the leadership of both countries are mature enough. We are working together on many issues. This is a very important year. Bangladesh celebrates its 50th anniversary of independence this year in which India has played a very key role."
