Modi Meets Bangladesh's Yunus in Bangkok Amid Diplomatic Strains and Regional Security Concerns

Prime Minister Narendra Modi met Bangladesh's Chief Adviser Muhammad Yunus in Bangkok during the BIMSTEC Summit, amid strained ties between the nations. The meeting follows Yunus’s controversial remarks on India’s Northeast, and India’s concerns over attacks on minorities in Bangladesh. Tensions have also risen due to Sheikh Hasina's asylum in India and growing Bangladesh-Pakistan military ties. Though Dhaka requested prior bilateral talks, Modi initially declined. This meeting is the first since Hasina’s ouster and may indicate cautious diplomatic re-engagement. #ModiYunusMeet #BangladeshIndiaTies #BIMSTEC2025 #DiplomaticTensions #IndiaBangladesh #ModiInBangkok #GeopoliticsAsia #SouthAsiaSummit #BIMSTECDialogue #SheikhHasina #MinorityRights #BangladeshPolitics #IndiaForeignPolicy #YunusRemarks #ModiDiplomacy #AsiaSummits #BangladeshAsylumIssue #PakistanISI #ModiBangladeshTalks #NortheastIndia ~ED.103~HT.336~GR.124~
