Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina on Thursday congratulated her Indian counterpart Narendra Modi on his "resounding" victory in the general elections, saying the renewed mandate given them by their people will further consolidate bilateral ties.

Prime Minister Modi led his Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) towards an emphatic victory for a second term in office.

In a congratulatory message to Modi, Prime Minister Hasina said,"On behalf of the Government and the people of Bangladesh and on my own behalf, I extend my heartiest congratulations to you on the resounding victory of the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) led by Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) under your dynamic leadership in the 17th Lok Sabha elections in India.

"This emphatic verdict is a reflection of the trust and confidence reposed on you by the people of the world's largest democracy."
