Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina arrived in New Delhi on a four-day tour to attend the India Economic Summit of the World Economic Forum to strengthen relations between India and Bangladesh.
NRC- A Great Concern For Bangladesh The ruling NDA-led-Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) government has been pushing for implementation of the National Register of Citizens (NRC) which has become a matter of great concern for Bangladesh.
Dhaka plans to raise the issue of National Register of Citizens (NRC) during the talks.
However, when the two leaders met at the 74th session of the UN General Assembly (UNGA) in New York in September, Sheik Hasina “raised the NRC issue.” PM Modi has gave the assurance to his Bangladesh counterpart that the NRC would have “no impact on Bangladesh” and there was no need to be worried about it.
“It is their (India’s) issue, let them handle it, so far, we don’t need to be worried regarding the NRC issue,” Bangladesh High Commissioner to India Syed Muazzem Ali asked for comments about India’s National Register of Citizens (NRC) process.
