Hasina came to India to offer prayers at Ajmer Sharif. Accompanied by her top aide and a former minister in her Cabinet, Saber Hossain Chowdhury, she will travel to Kolkata on Saturday before returning to Dhaka on Sunday.
"Since Awami League has a long-standing and historic relationship with Congress party as well as other political parties in India, it is but natural in a democratic set up to meet leaders of different parties," Chowdhury said.
Hasina also held separate meetings with leader of the opposition L K Advani and Defence Minister Pranab Mukherjee. She will meet External Affairs Minister K Natwar Singh who will host a lunch for her on Saturday.
