# Bangladesh PM Tariqe Rahman Likely to Visit Delhi Soon 2026-08-12T18:53:29+00:00 | Governance | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet Bangladesh Prime Minister Tariqe Rahman is expected to visit New Delhi for bilateral talks soon, Times Now reports citing Dhaka sources. The trip comes as Dhaka signals Rahman will ‘almost certainly’ skip the BRICS summit in Delhi this September. The visit follows a meeting between Rahman and India’s new High Commissioner Dinesh Trivedi, which Dhaka described as ‘well received’. Bangladesh has reiterated its demand for extradition of former PM Sheikh Hasina, who is living in India. India’s MEA says it is ‘examining the matter’ under established procedures. Ties have been strained over India hosting Hasina, who addressed a virtual event on August 5 and said she plans to return to Bangladesh. Bangladesh’s Home Minister warned India not to ‘play the Hasina card’ if it wants friendly relations. India said it does not endorse the comments made at Hasina’s press conference. The Ganga Waters Treaty, expiring December 31, 2026, and stalled bilateral projects are also on the agenda. ## Coverage - timesnownews.com - timesnownews.com Tags: Bangladesh, BRICS Summit, Ganga Waters Treaty, India-Bangladesh relations, Sheikh Hasina, Tariqe Rahman extradition Canonical: https://indianopinion.org/bangladesh-pm-tariqe-rahman-likely-to-visit-delhi-soon/ License: Summary and commentary (c) Indian Opinion, reusable with attribution.
