Ann, Kolkata :
An invitation has been forwarded to the Bangladesh premier through a minister who attended Mamata Banerjee’s oath-taking ceremony.
West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee, who has been newly elected for a successive period, wants to accord a grand reception for Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina.
The invitation was forwarded on Friday in a post-ceremonial brief meeting with Industries Minister Amir Hossain Amu, who represented
Hasina at Mamata’s swearing-in ceremony. Mamata’s invitation to attend her oath-taking was directly placed at Hasina’s table, but the premier had to skip the invitation because the date coincided with a pre-scheduled visit to Japan.
Industries Minister Amir Hossain Amu was chosen instead.
After the swearing-in ceremony this morning, Mamata had a five-minute courtesy meeting with Minister Amu, our Kolkata correspondent reports quoting First Secretary (Press) Mofakkharul Iqbal of Bangladesh’s Deputy High Commission in Kolkata.
There, she placed her government’s desire to Minister Amu saying that the reception date can be arranged at “a time at the convenience of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina.”
