The meeting between Chief Adviser Prof Muhammad Yunus and Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi has created a “ray of hope” for both countries, BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir said yesterday.

Yunus also raised the issue of border killings and stressed the need for working together to reduce the number of fatalities
