His comments come in the wake of the BNP chief's recent interview published in the Indian Express, where she blamed the Awami League, rather than India, for the unresolved bilateral issues.

"She (Khaleda) is ready to do anything for India, which is clear from her statements," Amu told Parliament on Thursday.
"She wants to act as India's broker. She wants to assume power by selling out Bangladesh's interests," the veteran Awami League (AL) leader further said.
Lambasting the BNP for its 'propaganda' against the ruling party, Amu said: "They have been all along saying that Awami League is India's broker.
"By making the recent comments, she (Khaleda) has proved wrong what she had been claiming all through her political career."
