He said that India is sowing seeds of discord between Pakistan and Bangladesh but it would not succeed in this anti-Pakistan agenda.
Sartaj added that Pakistan believes in peaceful co-existence adding that such statements put a question mark on India’s sincerity to establish good neighbourly relationship with Pakistan.
Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi in Bangladesh said he took part in Satyagraha movement in 1971 as he shared Bangladesh’s dream for liberation.
