"No rift with India": Bangladesh’s Yunus dismisses concerns, blames "propaganda"

Despite recent tensions, Bangladesh's interim Chief Adviser, Muhammad Yunus, insists that relations with India remain strong. He attributes misunderstandings to "propaganda" and emphasises deep historical, political, and economic ties between the two nations. In an interview with BBC Bangla, he confirmed ongoing diplomatic communication, including discussions with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Meanwhile, former PM Sheikh Hasina remains in exile, and Bangladesh continues to seek her extradition from India.
