Bangladesh seeks Sheikh Hasina’s extradition from India
Bangladesh has formally asked India to extradite former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, who fled to this country in August after a student-led movement dislodged her from power.
Israel would help India to convert 150 villages around the Centres of Excellence into villages of Excellence, said Union Minister for Agriculture Narendra Singh Tomar here on Friday.
While 75 villages would be taken up this year, the remaining would be taken up subsequently. Israel would provide Technical assistance and offer it other expertise to make agriculture a more profitable business.
