Bangladesh Foreign Secretary Md Jashim Uddin and Indian Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri will lead the respective sides, while officials from other relevant ministries, including commerce, water and home, will also be present at FOC, which will be held at the State Guest House Padma.
Misri is also likely to call on Chief Adviser Prof Muhammad Yunus and Foreign Adviser Touhid Hossain.
This is the first high-level visit from India to Bangladesh after the political changeover on August 5. Earlier on August 16, Chief Adviser Prof Muhammad Yunus and Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi had spoken over the phone.
In late September, Touhid Hossain and Indian External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar met on the sidelines of UN General Assembly in New York.
"The FOC will be more a meeting on how to bridge the gap, [and] set the political tone," a diplomatic source in New Delhi told this correspondent yesterday.
