The meeting covered a wide range of topics including law and order, police reform, the establishment of an independent police commission, the National Human Rights Commission Ordinance, the Prevention and Remedy of Enforced Disappearances Ordinance, and the Rohingya issue.

During the meeting, the minister emphasized that police reform is an ongoing process and that Bangladesh believes in gradual improvement. He noted that UNDP could assist in strengthening police capacity and restructuring efforts.
