Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi has invited his Bangladeshi counterpart Tarique Rahman, along with his wife Zubaida Rahman and their daughter Zaima Rahman, to visit India at a mutually convenient time.
“A warm welcome awaits you in India,” Modi wrote in a letter sent to Tarique on Monday, hours after the oath-taking ceremony of Tarique Rahman.
Indian Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla revealed the information after meeting Tarique Rahman on Monday afternoon.
