Home Minister Asaduzzaman Khan is going to Myanmar on Oct 23 on a three-day visit to take forward the discussion on the repatriation of the Rohingya refugees.
But his visit to violence-torn Rakhine State where a military crackdown has pushed over half a million Rohingyas into Bangladesh in a month is uncertain.
"Our main agenda in the discussions will be repatriation of the Rohingyas who have entered Bangladesh and stopping recurrence of such events,” Khan told reporters at his office on Thursday afternoon.
Besides the Rohingya crisis, he will discuss four bilateral issues that were fixed earlier, the minister said, informing the reporters about the date of the visit.
The two secretaries of the home ministry, chiefs of police, Border Guard Bangladesh, Coastguard, Department of Narcotics Control, among other top officials, will accompany the home minister during the visit.
