Indian External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar met newly appointed Bangladesh Foreign Minister Mohammed Hasan Mahmud and said the relationship between the two neighbouring nations “are growing from strength to strength.”

The two leaders met on the sidelines of the NAM summit in Kampala.

Following the meeting, Jaishankar wrote on X: "So glad to meet with my new Bangladesh counterpart FM Dr. Mohammed Hasan Mahmud in Kampala today. Congratulated him on his appointment and wished him all success."

"India-Bangladesh relations are growing from strength to strength. Look forward to receiving him in Delhi soon," he said.

Bangladesh, this month, voted to elect Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina and her Awami League to power for yet another term.

Jaishankar also met Sri Lankan President Ranil Wickremesinghe and wrote on X: "Pleased to call on Sri Lankan President @RW_UNP on the sidelines of the NAM Summit in Kampala. Appreciate his continued guidance for the advancement of our bilateral initiatives. India’s commitment is reflected in our Neighbourhood First and SAGAR policy."

During his visit to Kampala, Jaishankar met several other top leaders at the sideline of the NAM summit.
