Indian prime minister Narendra Modi held a meeting with his Bangladesh counterpart Sheikh Hasina at the residence of the Indian PM in New Delhi Friday afternoon.

The Indian PM in a tweet later on the day described his meeting with his Bangladesh PM as productive deliberations.

‘Had productive deliberations with PM Sheikh Hasina. The progress in India-Bangladesh relations in the last 9 years has been very gladdening. Our talks covered areas like connectivity, commercial linkage and more,’ he tweeted, uploading the images of the meeting.
