The arrest of a prominent Hindu monk in Bangladesh has sparked a diplomatic tussle with India, highlighting a recurring point of contention in the bilateral relationship: the condition of minorities in Bangladesh.
The Bangladesh interim government has banned Bangladesh Chatra League, the student organisation of former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina's party Awami League, after a demand by a student group that led the July-August uprising under the Anti-Terrorism Act of 2009.
India on Thursday confirmed that former Bangladesh prime minister Sheikh Hasina is still in this country
The removal of the Sheikh Hasina regime in Bangladesh is being projected as the handiwork of the American deep state. This is being accentuated by the appointment of Mohamad Yunus as head of the interim government.
A case has been filed against 59 people, including former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, on charge of attempting to murder a student during an anti-government protest in Dinajpur on August 4.
Hasina was compelled to step down on August 5 following the student protests, which saw more than 500 people killed.
A chapter in Bangladesh’s history has ended. The family which led the fight for freedom from the shackles of Pakistan and headed it for most part of its democratic phase will no longer have any role in its future.
Taking to Instagram Stories, Hina posted a graphic picture which shows many people lying down on the streets, with burning houses all around.
Adecade has happened in the last couple of weeks: a discredited quota system has been removed, hundreds of lives have been lost and Sheikh Hasina, notorious for her dictatorial traits, resigned and fled Bangladesh.
A leader of the student organisation of Bangladesh's former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina's party, the Awami League, was arrested from a village near the India-Bangladesh border in Murshidabad.
