The Indian delegation arrived at Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport at 2:56 pm on August 9 for an “official visit” at the invitation of the Directorate General of Forces Intelligence (DGFI), Bangladesh’s principal military intelligence agency.
Besides R&AW chief Parag Jain, the delegation included Ashwin Mukund Kotnis, a 2003-batch Tamil Nadu cadre officer currently on central deputation. Rahul Negi and Shaibal Roy Chowdhury are understood to be the other two members of the team.
The visit comes days after Bangladesh’s Foreign Ministry issued a strongly worded statement expressing “outrage” over former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina holding her first virtual press conference from India, where she is currently in exile.
While India had distanced itself from the event, Bangladesh used unusually strong language in its response, referring to Hasina as a “genocider” and describing her former government as a “mafia enterprise”.
