President Arif Alvi met with President Mohammed Shahabuddin of Bangladesh during his visit to the Holy Prophet’s (PBUH) Tomb in Medina.
President Alvi meets Bangladeshi counterpart in Medina: President Arif Alvi shared a photo on Twitter capturing his meeting with the leader of Bangladesh, expressing the success of their encounters in Mecca, Mina, and Medina.
The President emphasized the significance of these meetings and highlighted the positive interactions and discussions they had during their time together. The photo serves as a testament to the fruitful engagements between the leaders of Pakistan and Bangladesh in various sacred locations.
The President of Pakistan mentioned in a tweet that Salman Rehman, a former colleague who currently serves as a member of the Bangladeshi parliament, was also present. It was a remarkable reunion after 60 years, as they unexpectedly crossed paths once again. The President expressed his delight at the unexpected encounter and cherished the opportunity to reconnect with his former comrade.
Last month, President Alvi embarked on a journey to Saudi Arabia to perform the Hajj pilgrimage, an important detail to note. In his absence, Senate Chairman Sadiq Sanjrani has taken on the responsibility of Acting President. This temporary role allows for the smooth continuation of presidential duties while the President is away fulfilling his religious obligations.
