Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina is holding a one-on-one meeting with Indian leader Narendra Modi at her office.

The meeting began soon after the exchange of LBA documents on Saturday and will be followed by delegation-level talks.
 
Officials earlier told bdnews24.com that contentious issues like security, border management and water sharing would feature high on the meeting agenda.
 
“These might be reflected in a joint statement” that the two leaders will issue later on Saturday, they said.
 
Modi arrived in Dhaka on Saturday morning on a 35-hour state visit, his first after assuming office in May last year.
 
He resolved the 41-year old LBA issue for swap of enclaves, but the Teesta water-sharing deal remains to be sealed.
