The Home Minister of Bangladesh, Shahara Khatun, will visit India from the 23-24 of February. While discussions will be held on a range of issues, the killings of Bangladeshis by Indian Border Security Forces (BSF) will be central to the talks. The two Home Ministers are expected to discuss important bilateral issues such as border security, smuggling of drugs and a review of the implementation of the border management agreement.
