Let us tell you that since the coup, Hindus and people of minority community are being continuously targeted by protesters in Bangladesh. Not only this, incidents of vandalism and arson have also been carried out in Hindu religious places. This matter is being raised continuously by India. Prime Minister Narendra Modi also mentioned this in his address on the occasion of Independence Day. Modi had said that we hope that the situation in Bangladesh will be normal soon. Also, the incidents happening with the Hindus and minorities living there should be stopped and their safety should be ensured.
The PM had said that as a neighbouring country we are concerned about the situation in Bangladesh. Now the next day after Modi’s speech on Independence Day, the head of the interim government of Bangladesh called Modi and took responsibility for the safety of Hindus, indicating that the interim government of Bangladesh has taken the words of the PM of India very seriously. Even before this, Mohammad Yunus had met the people of the Hindu community and assured them of safety.
