R&AW Secretary Parag Jain led a four-member Indian security and intelligence delegation to Dhaka, where they met Bangladesh PM Tarique Rahman’s Defence Affairs Adviser Brig Gen (Retd) Dr AKM Shamsul Islam. The visit came amid heightened India-Bangladesh tensions following Bangladesh’s strong reaction to former PM Sheikh Hasina’s virtual press conference from India.
A four-member high-level Indian security and intelligence delegation, including Research and Analysis Wing (R&AW) Secretary Parag Jain, met Bangladesh Prime Minister Tarique Rahman’s Defence Affairs Adviser in Dhaka on Monday.
According to Bangladeshi newspaper The Daily Star, Jain held talks with Brig Gen (Retd) Dr AKM Shamsul Islam, the defence affairs adviser to Prime Minister Tarique Rahman.
The Indian delegation arrived at Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport at 2:56 pm on August 9 for an “official visit” at the invitation of the Directorate General of Forces Intelligence (DGFI), Bangladesh’s principal military intelligence agency.
Besides R&AW chief Parag Jain, the delegation included Ashwin Mukund Kotnis, a 2003-batch Tamil Nadu cadre officer currently on central deputation. Rahul Negi and Shaibal Roy Chowdhury are understood to be the other two members of the team.
