You ‘re always a great inspiration’

Congress General Secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra passionately hugs Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina while paying a courtesy call on the latter at a hotel in New Delhi on Sunday.

It was an emotional moment for Congress General Secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra when she met visiting Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina after a long hiatus and received an ‘overdue hug’ from the latter in New Delhi on Sunday.

Priyanka was effusive about the meeting with Hasina and said the Bangladesh Prime Minister’s strength in overcoming ‘deep personal loss and hardship’ (of having lost most of her parents and family members in August,1975), courage and perseverance would ‘always be a great inspiration’ for her.

In a twitter post after the about 30-minute meeting, Priyanka writes,”An overdue hug from Sheikh Hasina Ji whom I have been waiting to meet again for a long time. Her strength in overcoming deep personal loss and hardship and fighting for what she believed in with bravery and perseverance is, and always will be a great inspiration for me.”

Priyanka met Hasina along with former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and Congress President Sonia Gandhi and discussed issues concerning the two countries.

Senior Congress leader Anand Sharma was also present in the meeting that took place at the hotel where Hasina is staying during her four-day official visit. Hasina returned to Dhaka Sunday night. (Bss)
