General Topology, chapter III, § 2. Subgroups, quotient groups, homomorphisms homogeneous spaces, product groups

Let φ\varphi be the canonical mapping of a topological group GG onto a quotient group G/HG/H. If B\mathfrak{B} is a fundamental system of neighbourhoods of ee in GG, then φ(B)\varphi(\mathfrak{B}) is a fundamental system of neighbourhoods of the identity element φ(e)\varphi(e) of G/HG/H.

This is a particular case of Proposition 5 of Chapter I, § 5, no. 3.

Propositions 13 and 14 give in particular, for quotient groups:

Bourbaki puts the proof directly after the statement, so what is above is the statement and its proof together.
