India has rejected what it called “misleading propaganda” in sections of the Bangladeshi media over a protest held in front of the Bangladesh High Commission in New Delhi against the killing of a Hindu man.

India and New Zealand have signed a historic free trade agreement, concluding negotiations in just nine months. The pact aims to boost trade and investment, with both leaders confident bilateral trade could double in five years. It includes significant market access for Indian services and tariff reductions on New Zealand exports.

The agreement was signed by Commerce and Industry Minister Piyush Goyal and Oman’s Minister of Commerce, Industry and Investment Promotion, Qais bin Mohammed Al Yousef.
