Indian High Commissioner to Bangladesh Dinesh Trivedi held a bilateral meeting with Foreign Minister Dr Khalilur Rahman at the state guesthouse Padma in Dhaka on Sunday.

Neither side, however, officially disclosed details of the issues discussed during the meeting.

Speaking to reporters after the meeting, Foreign Minister Dr Khalilur Rahman said the Indian high commissioner is scheduled to meet Prime Minister Tarique Rahman on Monday.

“After that meeting, we will brief the media officially,” the foreign minister said.

According to the prime minister’s press wing, the meeting between Tarique Rahman and the Indian high commissioner is scheduled to take place at 11am on Monday at the Bangladesh Secretariat.

The meeting between the two diplomats comes amid renewed tensions in Bangladesh-India relations following remarks made by ousted former prime minister Sheikh Hasina at a virtual press conference in Delhi last week.

The latest diplomatic engagement between Dhaka and New Delhi is therefore being closely watched against the backdrop of the recent developments between the two neighbouring countries.

Further details of the discussions are expected to emerge following Monday’s meeting between Prime Minister Tarique Rahman and the Indian high commissioner.
