Suspense Crime Sach Ka Dam
Dhaka: Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri arrived in Bangladesh on Monday on a day-long visit. This is the first high-level visit from India after the ouster of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina’s government in August. Misri’s visit comes amid growing tensions in relations between New Delhi and Dhaka over attacks on minorities, including Hindus, in Bangladesh after Hasina’s ouster from power.
The issue of attacks on Hindus will be raised
Misri may hold extensive talks with his Bangladeshi counterpart Mohammad Jashimuddin. He is also scheduled to meet Bangladesh’s acting Foreign Minister Mohammad Touhid Hussain. It is believed that he will raise India’s concerns about attacks on Hindus with Dhaka.
Sheikh Hasina had to leave the country
In August this year, Hasina was forced to leave the country due to massive anti-government protests, after which relations between India and Bangladesh came under strain. Yunus took over the reins of the interim government a few days after Hasina took refuge in India.
India-Bangladesh relations are tense
In recent weeks, relations between the two countries have become even more tense after attacks on Hindus in Bangladesh and the arrest of Hindu saint Chinmoy Krishna Das. In the last few weeks, there have been incidents of violence against Hindus and other minorities in the neighboring country as well as attacks on temples, over which India has expressed deep concern.
