It is significant that the ruling party of India invited only Awami League among the political parties of Bangladesh, it added.
India, which has the world's largest democracy, is confident in Bangladesh Awami League as well as Sheikh Hasina's leadership and thus, considers Awami League as one of the most important organizations in South Asia and their true friends.

In view of this invitation, AL Information and Research Secretary and Member of Parliament Salim Mahmud has been nominated as a representative by Awami League President to visit India.
