Bangladesh resumes visa services in Delhi

Bangladesh has resumed visa services for Indian citizens at its High Commission in New Delhi around two months after they were suspended, Indian media report.

The services were restored on Friday morning, according to India Today.

The development comes three days after the BNP-led government took office, marking progress in diplomatic relations between the two countries.

All categories of visas for Indian nationals have now been reinstated, including medical and tourism visas. In December, business and work visas had remained outside the scope of the suspension, the report said.

Consular and visa services between the two countries were halted in December amid diplomatic tensions following the killing of political activist Sharif Osman bin Hadi.
