Bangladesh Prime Minister Tarique Rahman’s planned three-day visit to Delhi has been postponed. The visit was expected to begin on August 23. The delay comes as India-Bangladesh ties face fresh strain. Dhaka has asked China to help with the Teesta water project and has shown interest in a defence pact with Saudi Arabia, Pakistan and Turkey. Bangladesh has also sought the extradition of former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina from India. India has raised concerns over security and radical groups in Bangladesh. Rahman may also skip the BRICS summit, missing a chance for talks on trade, energy, transport and security.
