Outgoing Indian High Commissioner in Dhaka Vikram K Doraiswami paid a courtesy call on President M Abdul Hamid at Bangabhaban Wednesday evening, reports BSS.
During the meeting, Doraiswami expressed his gratitude to the President for his cooperation during his assignment in Dhaka.
President M Abdul Hamid termed the existing relationship between India and Bangladesh as historic.
He mentioned Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina's recent visit to India and Indian President as well as the Indian Prime Minister's visit to Bangladesh last year on the occasion of the birth centenary of Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman and the golden jubilee of Independence and victory.
As a result of these visits, relationships between the two countries have reached a new height, added President Hamid.
He also thanked the outgoing High Commissioner for successful endeavours in Dhaka.
The relations between the two neighbouring countries will expand further in days to come, hoped the President.
