External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar on Saturday met newly-appointed Bangladesh Foreign Minister Mohammed Hasan Mahmud in Uganda’s capital Kampala and hailed the bilateral relations, which are “growing from strength to strength”.
Mr. Jaishankar met his Bangladeshi counterpart in the Ugandan capital on the sidelines of the two-day Non-Aligned Movement (NAM) summit, which began on Friday.
He also congratulated Dr. Mahmud on being appointed as the Foreign Minister of Bangladesh as the two leaders are meeting for the first time after the new government took over in India’s neighbourhood earlier this month.
