Ridiculous that Indian side is even thinking of such a move

Bangladesh wants visa-free relations with India for the travellers of both countries in the coming days, Foreign Minister AK Abdul Momen has said.

"Both countries are expecting a visa-free India-Bangladesh relationship along with a quick resolution of the visa process," he said, chairing the annual "Bangladesh-India Friendship Dialogue" at a hotel in Sylhet yesterday.
Momen added, "Following the historical footsteps of Bangladesh-India relations, the two countries are working for mutual excellence in bilateral trade, education, culture, society and technology".

Responding to a question from journalists, the minister said, "Bangladesh and India share a common principle regarding Teesta water-sharing. It is stuck for some reason and will be resolved over time."
The four-day "Bangladesh-India Friendship Dialogue" was inaugurated by National Parliament Speaker Shirin Sharmin Chaudhury yesterday aiming at strengthening the friendly relations between Bangladesh and India, and developing the two countries' education, culture and business sectors.


Six ministers and 20 MPs participated in the dialogue from the Bangladesh side, while a 140-member delegation from India arrived in Sylhet to join the four-day event.

Awami League's Presidium member Jahangir Kabir Nanak, former Indian state minister for external affairs MJ Akbar and Indian High Commissioner to Bangladesh Pranay Verma attended the opening ceremony.

They expressed firm determination to further strengthen the bilateral relations between the two countries.

India and Bangladesh are nowhere close to agreement on Teesta. But a visa free border agreement will benefit Bangladesh and stop the senseless killings by the Indian border forces.

A VISA free border agreement would mean the start of open defecations by the Indians in our streets and taking over our jobs in the textile industry.

Small sacrifice given India says it hosts 40 million Bangladeshis who are considered illegal aliens.

They host no Bangladeshis but we host ten lac illegal Indians who mostly work in our textile industry as machine operators.

If you cannot fight for your rights, do what everyone else is doing apart from Pakistan. Milk the cow for what's her worth.

Notable mention to Canada for trying the free monthly trial.

They are lying sacks of poo - as always.

Why on earth would Bangladeshis go to India for jobs or adhaar cards when our GDP per capita nominal is equal or better than theirs?

It defies logic.

We have plenty of well-paying jobs at home.

"Fear of Muslims taking over" is a common trope bhakts have been using for ages in India, to get votes for the BJP.

Lies and more stinking lies.

FM Alga Momen wants visa-free status only because it benefits India. He thinks many Indian companies will build shops in BD and would want their own Indian people to come and work here.

With a visa-free agreement, there will be no hassle for them to enter BD.

I pray to God that someday this Alga Momen's wig falls off infront of female journalists.
