A four-person Indian delegation, led by Research and Analysis Wing (R&AW) Secretary Parag Jain, visited Dhaka on Monday. The delegation met Bangladesh Prime Minister Tarique Rahman’s Defence Affairs Adviser, Brig Gen (Retd) Dr AKM Shamsul Islam. Jain, who also heads India’s Special Protection Group (SPG), is part of the special mission.
The team arrived at Bangladesh’s Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport on August 9 for an official visit. Other members of the delegation are Ashwin Mukund Kotnis, a 2003-batch Tamil Nadu cadre officer, Rahul Negi, and Shaibal Roy Chowdhury. The delegation’s visit follows Bangladesh’s Foreign Ministry issuing a strong statement expressing outrage over former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina holding a virtual press conference from India.
Bangladesh used harsh language in its response, referring to Hasina as a "genocider" and describing her former government as a "mafia enterprise."
