Update on Bangladesh Unrest
In a recent incident, a Hindu man, Amrit Mondal from Bangladesh’s Rajbari district, was allegedly lynched over alleged extortion charges. This incident marked the second such in recent days. Earlier, on December 18, another young Hindu, Deepu Chandra Das, was brutally lynched by a mob.
A strong reaction from the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) expressing grave concern after the atrocities against Hindus in the country. MEA described the atrocities as “unremitting hostility” against minorities in Bangladesh, strongly condemning the recent killing of a Hindu youth and calling for strict action against those responsible.
MEA spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal said the government was deeply disturbed by the continued violence targeting minority communities in the neighbouring country. Recently, Bangladesh’s interim Home Minister Jahangir Alam Chowdhury also indirectly alleged Indian involvement in the violence.
In September, Chowdhury had claimed that “external influences” played a role in the Khagrachhari unrest, which left several people dead and security personnel injured. However, Jaiswal dismissed the claims and called them “false”.
