India says Bangladesh PM Rahman received two invitations for BRICS and bilateral visit
- India's government on Tuesday reiterated it had invited Bangladesh PM Tarique Rahman for both BRICS and a bilateral visit.
- PM Modi's 14 July letter invited Rahman to the BRICS summit as BIMSTEC chair, calling his role enriching.
- Dhaka pulled out of finalising the bilateral visit dates, reportedly over India's silence on Sheikh Hasina's extradition.
- MEA spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal clarified Rahman received two separate invitations, not just as BIMSTEC chair.
