The Fascist Jamaat's are two faced, but their again they are the spawns of the Fascist Pakis and their friends are BNP's, so this so called "congratulations" is expected, Jamaats of Trimunool Mamta Banarjee is 'against' the Teesta Water sharing and Modis BJP is 'For' the Teesta Deals, that is why I call this Fascist Jamaat's Pak Agent two faced, anything to get the vote banks, or put a spanner in the works of the National Interest of Bangladesh.
