Modi-Yunus Meeting in New York Unlikely, Say Indian Media

Top Indian News Outlets Question Whether Meeting Will Happen

Meeting Would Be a Major Step Forward in India-Bangladesh Relations

A meeting between Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Bangladeshi Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina in New York is unlikely to take place, according to several top Indian news outlets.

The meeting, which would have been a major step forward in India-Bangladesh relations, was reportedly being planned for the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly.

However, sources close to the Indian government have told Indian media outlets that the meeting is now unlikely to happen.

The sources did not provide a reason for the cancellation, but it is believed that the decision was made due to scheduling conflicts.

The meeting would have been the first between Modi and Hasina since December 2020.

The two leaders have met several times in the past, and have worked to improve relations between India and Bangladesh.

However, relations between the two countries have been strained in recent months due to a number of issues, including the killing of Indian nationals in Bangladesh, and the alleged harassment of Bangladeshi citizens in India.

The cancellation of the meeting is a setback for India-Bangladesh relations, but it is unclear whether it will have a long-term impact.

Sources close to the Indian government have said that the two countries will continue to work to improve relations, regardless of whether the meeting takes place.
