Tripura, June 28: In a gesture of goodwill and strengthening bilateral ties, Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina of Bangladesh gifted 400 kg of juicy ‘Haribhanga’ mangoes, 50 kg of Hilsa fish, and 50 kg of roshogollas to Tripura on Thursday. This comes just four days after Tripura’s Chief Minister Manik Saha sent 500 kg of queen pineapples to Bangladesh PM.

On June 24, 2024, Tripura Chief Minister Manik Saha sent the queen pineapples to Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina as a symbol of commitment to enhancing bilateral relations and promoting regional cooperation. The gesture was warmly reciprocated by Sheikh Hasina with a generous gift of mangoes and other delicacies.

The exchange took place at the Agartala-Akhaura Integrated Check Post, where officials from the Bangladesh Assistant High Commission received the gifts to be handed over to Tripura Chief Minister’s Office.

This tradition of fruit diplomacy between India and Bangladesh is well-established, with previous exchanges involving mangoes, pineapples, and Hilsa fish. These exchanges highlight the strong bond and mutual respect between the two nations. The queen pineapple from Tripura is celebrated for its taste and nutritional value, while the Haribhanga mangoes from Bangladesh are renowned for their sweetness and juiciness.

Bangladesh’s mango diplomacy extends beyond India, reaching countries like Bhutan, Nepal, Sri Lanka, and regions in the Middle East, furthering ties and promoting brotherhood.

This latest exchange of fruits underscores the deep-rooted relationship between India and Bangladesh, fostering goodwill, friendship, and regional cooperation. Such gestures continue to make headlines and warm hearts on both sides of the border, emphasizing the growing friendship and collaboration between the two countries.
