The Ministry of External Affairs has strongly advised Indian nationals against travelling to Bangladesh as fresh violence over quota reforms has killed more than 90 people in the country. The Ministry has advised Indian citizens to exercise “extreme caution” and restrict their movement.
“In view of ongoing developments, Indian nationals are strongly advised against travelling to Bangladesh till further notice,” read the advisory issued by the MEA.
At least 91 people have been killed and numerous others have been injured in a series of deadly clashes that broke out in several parts of the country on Sunday in a renewed violence centred on the “non-cooperation movement” under the banner of Students Against Discrimination.
13 police officers were killed in an attack in Sirajganj’s Enayetpur police station during the fresh bout of unrest, reported Dhaka Tribune.
Several people died in the clashes between protestors and members of the Awami League on Sunday afternoon.
In the capital Dhaka, eight people, including students, were killed from gunshot wounds during clashes between demonstrators and police, along with members of the Awami League, the report added.
The protestors are demanding the resignation of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, who called the protestors “terrorists”.
“Those who are protesting on the streets right now are not students, but terrorists who are out to destabilise the nation,” she remarked following a meeting of a national security panel.
In view of the escalating violence, the interior ministry has declared an indefinite nationwide curfew starting at 6 p.m. (1200 GMT) on Sunday.
