Modi, High Commissioner to Dhaka discuss bilateral ties amid talks for Bangladesh PM’s delayed India visit
Indian High Commissioner Dinesh Trivedi met with Prime Minister Narendra Modi to discuss bilateral relations with Bangladesh. The meeting occurs amid ongoing diplomatic efforts to reschedule the Bangladeshi Prime Minister's visit to India following political instability.
Why it matters
The meeting is a critical step in stabilizing India-Bangladesh relations after the recent change in government in Dhaka.
As India and Bangladesh negotiate about Bangladesh Prime Minister Tarique Rahman’s visit to India, High Commissioner to Dhaka Dinesh Trivedi held a “very good” and “long” meeting with Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday (October 7, 2026), according to a source in the PMO.
Mr. Trivedi, who took charge at his current post in June, is on a three-day visit to Delhi for consultations. The source did not share any details of his conversation with Mr. Modi. The meeting took place even as the Ministry of External Affairs reiterated that India wants to build a “constructive and forward looking” relationship with Bangladesh.
