प्रधानमंत्री नरेंद्र मोदी 6 जून की सुबह ढाका पहुंचे जहाँ उनका गर्मजोशी से स्वागत किया गया। बांग्लादेश की प्रधानमंत्री शेख हसीना ने प्रोटोकॉल तोड़ते हुए हवाई अड्डे पर स्वयं जाकर प्रधानमंत्री मोदी का स्वागत किया। वहां पहुँचने के तुरंत बाद प्रधानमंत्री ने बांग्ला में ट्वीट कर गर्मजोशी से स्वागत करने के लिए प्रधानमंत्री हसीना को धन्यवाद दिया और यह आशा जताई कि उनकी इस दो दिवसीय यात्रा के दौरान भारत-बांग्लादेश के बीच संबंध और मजबूत होंगे।
India Honest is glad that Bangladesh, India sign historic land boundary agreement after four decades of wait and uncertainty, under the leadership of PM. Narendra Modi .As since 1974, the agreement was stuck of one or other reasons,and that was hindering our good relationship with our close friend Bangladesh .
What couldn't be done in more than 40 years, @narendramodi does it in a year. This historic 4000 km long border settlement (one of the longest in the world) will resolve our disputes, secure our borders, help against infiltration, facilitate trade & movements, especially for people of North East.
India and Bangladesh signed an agreement to simplify their 4,000-km (2,500-mile) border and clarify the identities of 52,000 living in enclaves, over four decades after the neighbours first tried to untangle complex territorial rights set down in 1713.
Under the deal, signed in the presence of Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his Bangladeshi counterpart Sheikh Hasina in Dhaka, the two countries will swap 200 tiny enclaves, most of them close to the official border. Their inhabitants have been deprived of public services and living in squalid conditions.
Established by a treaty between two former princely states, the 106 Indian enclaves in Bangladesh and 92 Bangladeshi enclaves in India are islands of foreign territory inside each country.
The two prime ministers, along with the chief minister of West Bengal, India Mamata Banerjee, also inaugurated bus services along the border towns of India and Bangladesh.

भारत का गौरव हमारे प्रधान मंत्री श्री नरेंद्र मोदी, जहाँ भी जाते हैं भारत
का नया इतिहास रच देते हैं! उनके सम्मान में किस तरह नत मस्तक हो रहे हैं बांग्लादेशी!
The two countries are also looking to boost trade and security along the border and fight human trafficking. Adani Power Limited of India and Reliance Power Limited of India signed deals worth over $4.5 billion with state-run Bangladesh Power Development Board to develop six units of power plants to produce 4,600 MW of electricity. Reliance will invest $3 billion to produce 3,000 MW power, while Adani will set up two coal-fired plants with a total capacity of 1,600 MW, costing more than $1.5 billion.
