PV Desk : India has unveiled a new state-of-the-art visa centre in Dhaka that will gradually replace all the other four centres in the capital with modern facilities, promising shorter waiting times for applicants.
Visiting Indian Home Minister Rajnath Singh inaugurated the integrated centre at Jamuna Future Park (JFP) in Dhaka along with his Bangladesh counterpart Asaduzzaman Khan Kamal.
Indian High Commissioner Harsh Vardhan Shringla, who was present at the inauguration, later told journalists that this is the largest Indian visa centre in the world and possibly the largest anywhere.
To mark the inauguration of the new IVAC, the Indian home minister presented a five-year multiple-entry tourist visa to Mohammad Nazrul Islam under the Muktijoddha category while the Bangladesh Home Minister presented a five-year multiple-entry tourist visa to Amal Chandra Natta under the Senior Citizen category.
