India and Bangladesh have begun rebuilding security ties, with a senior Bangladeshi military intelligence official visiting New Delhi for meetings with National Security Adviser Ajit Doval and other interlocutors.
Maj Gen Kaiser Rashid Chowdhury, the head of the Directorate General of Forces Intelligence (DGFI), participated in an annual security conclave and held bilateral meetings with Doval and the Director General of Military Intelligence, Lt Gen RS Raman.
Chowdhury's discussions with his Indian interlocutors focused on revitalising channels of communication and ensuring that the territory of both countries is not used by interests that are inimical to the development of good relations.
The meetings are seen as part of the process of normalising bilateral relations following the unprecedented strains witnessed during the term of the interim government led by Prime Minister Tarique Rahman.
