Dhaka, Oct 22 (IBNS): Indian external affairs minister Sushma Swaraj on Sunday reached Dhaka city to commence her two-day visit to Bangladesh.

Sushma Swaraj's Bangladesh counterpart AH Mahmood Ali received her at the  Bangabandhu Air Base.

She is visiting the country at the invitation of Abul Hassan Mahmood Ali, Foreign Minister of Bangladesh.

During the visit, EAM and the Bangladesh Foreign Minister will co-chair the 4th meeting of the India-Bangladesh Joint Consultative Commission, read a statement issued by the MEA.

EAM is expected to meet the Bangladeshi leadership and also interact with the representatives of leading Bangladeshi think tanks, chambers of commerce and industry and cultural organisations.
