The foreign secretaries of Bangladesh and India met in Dhaka on Monday to discuss relations between the neighbours, including growing tensions since the fall of former prime minister Sheikh Hasina, who fled into exile in India in August.
The tensions have grown over the recent arrest in Bangladesh of a Hindu priest under the interim government led by Nobel laureate Muhammad Yunus. Alleged attacks on minority Hindus in Bangladesh and on a Bangladesh diplomatic mission in India were expected to feature prominently in the talks. India stopped issuing visas for Bangladeshis except emergency medical visas after Ms Hasina's ouster.
