The anti-quota protest in Bangladesh, which culminated in anti-government agitation, is now taking a drastic turn.
Hindu minorities are being selectively targeted by Islamists under the garb of civil disobedience and non-cooperation with the Sheikh Hasina government.
On Sunday (4th August) noon, the ‘protestors’ laid siege on the Rayganj Press Club in Sirajganj and brutally attacked a Hindu journalist named Pradip Kimar Bhowmik.
