India’s Ministry of External Affairs has confirmed that it is reviewing Bangladesh’s request to extradite former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, who has been residing in New Delhi since leaving Dhaka on August 5, 2024. Ministry spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal stated at a weekly press briefing in New Delhi on Friday that the request is being examined as part of ongoing judicial and internal legal processes, and that India will continue constructive discussions with all concerned parties.
The statement follows Bangladeshi Foreign Minister Khalilur Rahman’s visit to India on April 8, during which he met Indian Foreign Minister S. Jaishankar and National Security Adviser Ajit Doval. Rahman later told reporters that Bangladesh had reiterated its earlier request for Hasina’s return under the existing extradition treaty but declined to disclose further details for strategic reasons. Jaiswal emphasized that both sides agreed to explore proposals to deepen bilateral cooperation and that follow-up meetings between officials are expected soon.
The discussions also covered regional and global issues of mutual interest, reflecting both governments’ intent to strengthen ties under Bangladesh’s new administration.
