Indian Prime Minister Modi in a joint address to the media with visiting Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina said "India has always stood for the prosperity of Bangladesh and its people. We are a long-standing and trusted development partner of Bangladesh. India and Bangladesh are also determined that the fruits of our cooperation must reach our people."

Modi added, India wanted to build cooperation in new areas with Bangladesh especially in some high-technology sectors which would include working in the fields of electronics, IT, cyber security, space explorations and civil nuclear energy.

He announced a new concession line of credit of $4.5 billion for the implementation of core projects of Bangladesh that "brings our resources allocation for Bangladesh to more than $8 billion over more than past six years".

Indian Prime Minister also announced that Bangladesh would be given “a line of credit $500 million for Bangladesh’s defence procurement, which will be guided by Bangladesh needs”.

However, the much-delayed pact on the Teesta water sharing remained elusive for the two sides. Admitting that the pact was "important" for India-Bangladesh ties, Modi assured India’s commitment to the issue. He said an early solution can and will be found” to the Teesta water sharing issue. After their restricted meeting, the two countries Prime Minister were joined by their respective delegations.
