The meeting came a day ahead of formal delegation-level talks between the Bangladesh PM and her Indian counterpart Narendra Modi at Hyderabad House on Tuesday when boosting cooperation in areas of defence, trade, energy, connectivity and river water sharing are expected to dominate their conversation.

Jaishankar later said the warmth and frequency of the leadership level contact between the two countries is a testimony to the close neighbourly partnership.
