Foreign Minister Khalilur Rahman and the Prime Minister’s Foreign Affairs Adviser Humaiun Kobir were present during the meeting.

India appointed Trivedi, a former Indian railway minister and health minister and a veteran politician from West Bengal, as its 16th High Commissioner to Bangladesh in April, replacing Pranay Kumar Verma.

Trivedi formally assumed office after presenting his credentials to former president Mohammed Shahabuddin on June 25.

Trivedi has already held meetings with Foreign Minister Khalilur Rahman and State Minister for Foreign Affairs Shama Obaed as part of his diplomatic engagements in Dhaka.
