Another Myanmar delegation on Wednesday visited Teknaf in Cox’s Bazar for the second day to verify information about Rohingyas and talked to them (Rohingyas) about their repatriation to their homeland.

“A 28-member delegation of Myanmar arrived at Teknaf Jetty Ghat in the morning and verified information of 60 Rohingya families staying at a government rest house in Teknaf,” Additional Commissioner of Refugee Relief and Repatriation Commissioner (RRRC) Office Md Shamsuddouza told BSS.

After holding talks with the Rohingya families over their repartition to their homeland, the delegation returned to Myanmar in the afternoon, he said.

Earlier, on Tuesday, a 32-member Myanmar delegation visited Teknaf and verified information about 180 Rohingya families.

The delegation apprised the Rohingya people of the arrangement of the Myanmar government for them and encouraged them to go back to their homeland.

On March 15 and May 25, the Myanmar delegation came to Bangladesh and verified information of about 700 Rohingyas. Besides, a 7-member team on behalf of the Bangladesh government and a 20-member delegation of Rohingyas visited Maungdaw in Rakhine State of Myanmar on May 5 to see the environment there for repatriation.
