Another strategic failure for India after its failure with their marriage to Israel. India kicked out of security framework for Pacific. Seems like no one wants to be friends with Modi … India no longer useful to the Americans…..

Pakistan has a role in the Middle East as a net security Provider now and has pushed India out of the security framework for the Middle East very successfully …

Why next for shining supa power India?

Any update on the situation with Indian sailors being killed by U.S missiles?

I've seen some Indian news anchors/defense analysts (not sure what you guys would call them) victim blaming the sailors, so it's kind of up in the air on what the stance is by most of the hardliners in India - firm and angry at the U.S or more so of a "well what did you expect to happen?" type view.

India reopens tourist visas for Bangladeshis after nearly two years​

Star Online Report

Indian High Commissioner Dinesh Trivedi
India is going to resume issuing tourist visas for Bangladeshi citizens, nearly two years after suspension following the political changeover in Bangladesh in 2024.


Dinesh Trivedi, the newly appointed Indian High Commissioner in Dhaka, announced the decision at the Indian Visa Application Center (IVAC) at Jamuna Future Park today.

For all latest news, follow The Daily Star's Google News channel.​

"I am very happy to be able to announce the launch of general travel visas again. Visa applications can be submitted starting June 28. Urgent medical visas will continue to be provided for humanitarian reasons," he told journalists.


Visas will initially be issued through five centres -- Dhaka, Rajshahi, Chittagong, Sylhet and Khulna -- with operations expected to expand further in the future.

Bangladesh urged India to normalise visa issuance​

"We hope that this will further strengthen the people-to-people ties between our two sovereign nations," Trivedi said.

According to a statement from the Indian High Commission, security concerns following the events of August 5, 2024, forced Indian missions in Bangladesh to scale down visa operations. The statement said the Indira Gandhi Cultural Centre in Dhanmondi was ransacked and set on fire, five IVACs came under attack, and Indian personnel working on development projects faced threats.


Despite the security challenges, India continued operating visa centres in Dhaka, Chittagong, Khulna, Sylhet and Rajshahi to meet humanitarian needs, particularly for patients seeking medical treatment, it said. India has been issuing more than 1,500 visas daily across all categories except tourist visas, it added.

Trivedi, who arrived in Dhaka on June 12, presented his credentials to President Mohammed Shahabuddin at Bangabhaban earlier today before making the announcement.


The resumption of tourist visas marks another step in the gradual normalisation of relations between Dhaka and New Delhi, which became strained after the fall of the Awami League government. Both countries imposed restrictions on trade and visa services during the period of tension.

Relations have improved in recent months. Indian External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar visited Dhaka on December 31, while Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi later congratulated Bangladeshi Prime Minister Tarique Rahman following the formation of the new government. Bangladesh missions in India subsequently resumed issuing all categories of visas to Indian citizens.

@Nilgiri @Musings please ensure that this article which is about the *Indian* government's actions stay in the India sub-forum and not be unfairly put in another sub-forum.

Credit to both India's Ministry of External Affairs and also to the Bangladeshi foreign ministry on working to improve Bangladesh-India relations.

Our relations with India are important to us Bangladeshis. As most members of this sub-forum know there is very vocal but small minority in Bangladesh who have a deep irrational hatred of India. These India-haters are obsessed with India and even if India gave Bangladesh $100 trillion and made it x10 wealthier than Switzerland they would still hate it and look for false "reasons" to promote India-hatred. However I think India's MEA is more prudent and far-sighted and is displaying maturity, which should definitely be appreciated and respected.

Very very bad news

It's good news.

The situation between Bangladesh and India is nothing like how the propagandists on this forum try to make it look or social media in general. Both governments have adults running things and not keyboard warrior. India is a value and respected neighbour and ally.

Btw according to the trolls on this forum the Bangladeshi government and ruling party are run by/infilitrated by RAW agents....lol. In other words they dislike the current Bangladeshi government and its policy of maintaining good relations with India.

Now the above tweet where the ruling party in Bangladesh expresses condolences over the death of Indian citizens is something that shouldn't even be happening if we were to go by the extreme, racist, anti-Indian, India-hating Jamaati trolls on this forum but yes the BNP in Bangladesh is basically pro-India (just not keen on being a slave of India but good friends, allies and partners).

Bangladeshi Hindu actress Sanchita Rani Datta was present in the meeting.





This is the land minister.



Mizanur Rahman Minu has a long history of being fiercely anti-Awami League so respect for India is not just among Awami leaguers but even enemies of the Awami league like nationalist and patriot Mizanur Rahman Minu a BNP leader and minister of the Bangladeshi government.

India will make some noise, for domestic consumption, but in the end, it will do nothing. These sailors were working on a boat in a shadow fleet smuggling Iranian oil.

The sailors knew what they were risking by working on such a ship. For higher pay, they chose to be criminals. How can India tolerate this and purport to be supporters of international law? It would look hypocritical, and they know it.

If you are trying to write propaganda, please do a better job. Bitterness is not a good place to be.

India is not doing as well as you think it is. Where was India during the recent US-Iran war? Nowhere to be seen. How does India reconcile its relationship with Israel and Iran? Do you think being quiet will escape notice? How can you have good relations with the EU when you are a proud friend of Russia?

And no, the US is not being cold-shouldered by the world, but India is.

Who is doing good in this world anyway. Are the US who started a pointless war with Iran blocking hormuz, without zero backing of EU or NATO allies is doing good? Russia fighting Ukraine (& failing), EU reeling under RW populism Russia threat among economic slowdown, American retreat to protectionism, Arabs or Israelis, who exactly is in a better place than before COVID. Not even China is.

India got nothing to do with any of these conflicts our interests are better served when we don't take sides. How exactly is this a foreign policy failure?
