Responding to questions on
Tuesday, the ministry's spokesperson said the programme was being organised by
a private organisation and had no connection with the Government of India.
"The event in New Delhi
is being organised by a private entity. The Government of India has no
association with it," the spokesperson said.
Sheikh Hasina is expected to
address the event virtually on August 5, marking the second anniversary of the
student-led mass uprising in Bangladesh. The programme has been organised by
the Foreign Correspondents' Club of South Asia.
Bangladesh had sought
clarification from New Delhi regarding the Indian government's position on the
planned event.
