‘PM Modi to visit Bangladesh, hold talks with Sheikh Hasina’: Foreign Secretary

Prime Minister Modi will visit Bangladesh on March 26 and 27 on the invitation of Bangladesh counterpart Sheikh Hasina.

This will be the first foreign visit by Prime Minister Modi since the coronavirus outbreak.

The visit comes at a momentous time in bilateral ties between two countries, said Foreign Secretary Harsh Vardhan Shringla.

"Bangladesh is celebrating the 50th anniversary of its liberation war.

India had lent its full support to this noble cause in which Indian soldiers sacrificed their lives too," said Shringla.

He added, “Both nations are commemorating 50 years of the establishment of diplomatic ties.

It is also the year of commemoration of the 100th birth anniversary of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman.” Watch the full video for more.
