Seasoned diplomat Vikram K Doraiswami was on Tuesday (23) appointed India’s new high commissioner to the United Kingdom, considered an important posting in view of growing strategic ties between the two countries. The Indian Foreign Service officer of 1992 batch is currently serving as the Indian high commissioner to Bangladesh.
“He is expected to take up the assignment shortly,” the ministry of external affairs (MEA) said.
The overall ties between India and Bangladesh witnessed a major expansion during Doraiswami’s tenure in Dhaka that began in October 2020.
Previous high commissioner to the UK Gaitri Issar Kumar retired from service on June 30.
