India will resume issuing tourist visas to Bangladeshi nationals from June 28, marking a significant step toward normalising relations between the two neighbouring countries. The announcement was made in Dhaka by newly appointed Indian High Commissioner Dinesh Trivedi, who recently assumed office and was also granted Cabinet-rank status for ceremonial protocol.
