Hindus in Bangladesh

Shafiqul Alam, the press secretary of the Muhammad Yunus government, claimed that Hindus are safer under the current administration as compared to they were under Sheikh Hasina's regime.

"The incident earlier today of the breach of premises at the Bangladesh Assistant High Commission in Agartala is deeply regrettable. Diplomatic and consular properties should not be targeted under any circumstances," the official statement by the MEA read.

"We came to participate in a religious ceremony in India, but immigration officials stopped us, citing the absence of government permission,"  ISKCON member Saurabh Tapandar Cheli said.
