Bangladesh and Myanmar signed the Physical Arrangement Agreement on Tuesday (January 16) to repatriate the Rohingyas who have fled to Bangladesh. As per the agreement, each Rohingya family will have to fill up a form for the repatriation purpose which will later be sent to Myanmar. Under the agreement, the countries agreed to complete the repatriation of the displaced Rohingyas within two years. The repatriation will be based on considering the family as a unit and the four-page form will contain the information of the entire family. The repatriation process will start four weeks after the Myanmar government completes scrutinizing the forms and informs Bangladesh about it.
