UNB, Dhaka :
Bangladesh has invited Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi to visit Bangladesh on March 26 in person to jointly celebrate the Independence Day of Bangladesh.
 “We’ve invited him and they agreed in principle,” Foreign Minister Dr AK Abdul Momen told reporters after his meeting with Indian High Commissioner to Bangladesh Vikram Doraiswami on Sunday.
There will be a virtual meeting between Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina and her Indian counterpart Narendra Modi either on December 16 or 17.
“Our victory is India’s victory. We should celebrate together,” said the Foreign Minister.
Earlier, Doraiswami assured that the planned virtual summit in December between Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina and her Indian counterpart Narendra Modi is not being seen as a substitute for in person visit by Prime Minister Modi.
It will rather be a complementary summit, he said during his meeting with State Minister for Foreign Affairs M Shahriar Alam.
Dr Momen said they had a very good meeting and the Indian High Commissioner understands the sensitivity of Bangladesh and knows the issues of Bangladesh.
