Bangladesh’s interim leader Muhammad Yunus has sent 1,000 kg of Haribhanga mangoes to Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, West Bengal CM Mamata Banerjee, and Tripura CM Manik Saha in a diplomatic gesture. This "mango diplomacy" follows strained ties between India and Bangladesh after Sheikh Hasina’s government fell last year. The consignment arrives Monday in New Delhi. PM Modi met Yunus in April during the BIMSTEC Summit in Bangkok. Bangladesh’s move comes amid efforts to balance relations with India while courting China and Pakistan. The mango gift seeks to revive goodwill through cultural diplomacy despite regional tensions. (PC: NDTV)
