Dhaka, Bangladesh April 20 -- India should stop springing "diplomatic surprises" on Bangladesh, a Dhaka newspaper said Monday and added that New Delhi's "aggressive style" since the Awami League government had come to power showed its "assertion of dominance over a neighbouring country".
New Delhi had "embarked on aggressive diplomacy to pursue its interests" ever since Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina took office, English language New Age daily said in an editorial Monday.
Indian Foreign Secretary Shivshankar Menon's April 12-13 visit was considered to be a 'surprise' during which the official had a one-to-one talk with Hasina. He reportedly warned her that there could be an attempt to kill her.
Both governments remained silent on the visit's outcome and Dhaka followed up the warning by stepping up security for Hasina and her political associates.
