India signs pact with Bangladesh for LPG import

India on Saturday signed three pacts with Bangladesh, including one for importing liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), with Prime Minister Narendra Modi saying the motto behind such initiatives is to ensure ease of living in both the countries and strengthening bilateral ties.

The pacts were signed after detailed talks between Modi and visiting Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina here. The other two pacts relate to vocational training and setting up of a social facility in Bangladesh.

Addressing the media, along with Hasina after their talks and signing of the pacts, Modi said, “We have launched a dozen joint projects in a year by adding three projects today”.
