On July 17, India and Bangladesh held a day long foreign secretary level talks in New Delhi, reports Indian Express. Talks between Indian Foreign Secretary Shiv Shankar Menon and his Bangladeshi counterpart Mohammad Touhid Hossain centred around strengthening the ties between the two countries, particularly on security issues.
